AHELP for CIAO 3.4 redo Context: chips

Synopsis

Redoes the most recently undone plotting command.

Syntax

chips> REDO [#]

where # is an integer number of commands to be redone.

Example 1

chips> CURVE data/example.dat
chips> LIMITS X 5.0 15.0
chips> UNDO
chips> REDO

A curve is plotted and the limits of the X-axis are changed. The UNDO command restores the limit to their original defaults. The REDO command then redoes the most recently undone command, thus changing the X-axis limits once again.

Example 2

chips> CURVE data/example.dat
chips> LIMITS X 5.0 15.0
chips> LIMITS Y 10.0 15.0
chips> AXES BLUE
chips> LIMITS Y 10.0 25.0
chips> UNDO 3
chips> REDO 1

A curve is plotted and the limits of both axes are changed. They are colored blue, then the Y-axis limits are changed again. The UNDO command backtracks through the previous three commands (in the order they are undone: LIMITS Y 10.0 25.0, AXES BLUE, LIMITS Y 10.0 15.0). The REDO command then redoes the most recently undone command (LIMITS Y 10.0 15.0), leaving the final plot with white axes and limits of x=5:15, y=10:15.
