NAME

       plbop - Begin a new page

SYNOPSIS

       plbop()

DESCRIPTION

       Begins  a  new  page.  For a file driver, the output file is opened if necessary.  Advancing the page via
       pleop(3plplot) and plbop(3plplot) is useful when a page break is  desired  at  a  particular  point  when
       plotting  to  subpages.   Another  use  for  pleop(3plplot)  and plbop(3plplot) is when plotting pages to
       different files, since you can manually set the file name by calling plsfnam(3plplot) after the  call  to
       pleop(3plplot).  (In fact some drivers may only support a single page per file, making this a necessity.)
       One way to handle this case automatically is to page advance via  pladv(3plplot),  but  enable  familying
       (see  plsfam(3plplot))  with  a  small  limit  on  the file size so that a new family member file will be
       created on each page break.

       Redacted form: plbop()

       This function is used in examples 2 and 20.
