Description

Examples
Example 1
chips> add_line(0, 0, 1, 1) chips> hide_line() chips> display_line()
Create a line and hide it, then display the current line.
Example 2
chips> add_line(.1, .3, .9, .3, "id=flat")
chips> hide_line("flat")
chips> add_line(.3, .8, .8, .2, "id=slope")
chips> id = ChipsId()
chips> id.line = "flat"
chips> display_line(id)Two lines are created; the second line is current after it is created. The id.line command sets the line value of the ChipsId structure to the first line. That line is then displayed.
Example 3
chips> add_line(.1, .3, .9, .3, "id=flat")
chips> add_line(.3, .8, .8, .2, "id=slope")
chips> hide_line("all")
chips> display_line("all")Two lines are created and hidden, then the display_line command displays them both.
