Creates multiple drawing areas.
Integer_Type chips_split(numXpanes,numYpanes[,whichPane])
This is a S-Lang version of the ChIPS SPLIT command.
It creates multiple drawing areas (also called panes),
optionally selecting which one is to be the "current"
one ("whichPane"). The command splits the display up into
"numXpanes" by "numYpanes" drawing areas.
These areas (or panes) are numbered sequentially from the
upper-left, going down the rows, so
chips> chips_split( 2, 3, 3 )
6
chips> chips_line( 0, 0, 1, 1 )
0
splits the display into 2 columns of three rows and
sets the current pane to be the bottom-left one (number 3).
A line is then drawn in this pane.
The function returns the number of panes actually created.
Arguments for chips_split

The routine prints a usage message if used with the wrong
number of arguments:
chips> chips_split(1)
Usage: chips_split(nx,ny[,drawing_area_selected])
chips_split(1);
chips> chips_split(1,2)
2
chips> split gap 0.1
Here we mix ChIPS and S-Lang commands. The
chips_split() call creates two drawing areas,
stacked vertically. We then use a ChIPS SPLIT command to add a
gap between the two panes.
() = chips_split(1,2);
() = chips_eval( "split gap 0.1" );
This is a S-Lang version of the previous
example.
chips_clear;
() = chips_split(2,2,3);
() = chips_label(0.5,0.5,"Pane: 3");
This set of commands will clear the screen,
create 4 drawing areas (ina 2 by 2 grid)
and add the text "Pane: 3" to the third
(top right) one.
