Hi Hez:
Thanks for your contribution to PLplot.

I have changed the plimager name to plimagefr (fixed range). I changed the
name because "imager" has a definite meaning that would give the wrong idea
about the capabilities of this function, but if there is a ground swell for
"plimager" or yet another name, I can make the appropriate changes. I have
also changed this part of your patch so that if follows our "c_" convention
(don't ask) for our public API names.
Everything works for me on Debian testing (including ctest of example 20 with
gv of those plimage results to make sure they look fine). Therefore, I have
committed this part of your patch. Please try out our latest svn version to
make sure plimagefr works for you as intended.

I am working on that part of your patch to get rid of a few issues found by
"make validate". However, that was an excellent first try. Thank you very
much. You are now a DocBook expert! :-)

My new check script now shows plimagefr is missing everywhere in the various
bindings. That is fine because it doesn't break anything, and we will
propagate plimagefr to all the bindings as time permits.
