This isn't in R-and-octave.txt: I'll add it when I get a minute. And come to think of it, R-and-octave.txt doesn't mention plot3, probably because it's not implemented in octave AFAIR. I'll add a section of 3D graphics, When I Get A Minute (tm). You also have p3d() of the "onion" package for 3D plotting, which you might find closer in spirit to the matlab functionality. best wishes rksh > ... > > Will create a new device. see ?Devices for a list of devices you can > open on your system or ?capabilities .
