As is the case in gnuplot, PyXPlot can be configured using the set command – for example:
set output 'foo.eps'
would set it to send its plotted output to the file foo.eps. Typing ‘set’ on its own returns a list of all recognised ‘set’ configuration parameters. The unset command may be used to return settings to their default values; it recognises a similar set of parameter names, and once again, typing ‘unset’ on its own gives a list of them. The show command can be used to display the values of settings.
