NAME

       savelofig - save a logical figure on disk

SYNOPSYS

       #include "mlu.h"
       void savelofig(ptfig)
       lofig_list ∗ptfig;

PARAMETER

       ptfig               Pointer to the lofig to be written on disk

DESCRIPTION

       savelofig  writes  on  disk  the contents of the figure pointer to by ptfig. All the figure lists are ran
       through, and the appropriate objects written, independently of the figure mode.
       The savelofig function in fact performs a call to a driver,  choosen  by  the  MBK_OUT_LO(1)  environment
       variable.  The  directory  in  which  the  file  is to be written is the one set by MBK_WORK_LIB(1).  See
       MBK_OUT_LO(1), MBK_WORK_LIB(1) and mbkenv(3) for details.

ERRORS

       "∗∗∗ mbk error ∗∗∗ not supported logical output format 'xxx'"
              The environment variable MBK_OUT_LO is not set to a legal logical format.
       "∗∗∗ mbk error ∗∗∗ savelofig : could not open file figname.ext"
              Either the directory or the file are write protected, so it's not possible  to  open  figname.ext,
              where ext is the file format extension, for writting.

EXAMPLE

       #include "mlu.h"
       void save_na2_y()
       {
          savelofig(getlofig("na2_y"));
       }
