Hi Andrew: Your recent work has made the different arrow styles in page 2 and 3 of example 22 distinguishable so I withdraw my suggestion to remove one of those pages from the example. However, before we propagate your recent changes to the C version example 22 to the rest of our languages, I still think you should have titles for pages 2, 3, and 4 which indicate what is being changed in those pages. So would you agree to something like
PLplot Example 22 - constriction (arrow style 1) PLplot Example 22 - constriction (arrow style 2) PLplot Example 22 - constriction (plstransform) for those three titles? Once you are ready to give the signal to propagate the example 22 changes to the rest of our languages, could you say something about the standard way to handle NULL arguments (which apparently you have implemented for plvect) for our various languages? For example, I have spotted the use of ArrayCkNull parameters in bindings/swig-support/plplotcapi.i which you have implemented in a few (but not all) of our NULL array cases. Are the appropriate variants of that parameter what we need to implement for plvect for the Python, Java, Lua, and Octave cases? Also, could you list which languages you feel have a good capability for generating NULL C array arguments (or conversely list languages where you don't think we should worry about this C capability).
