Kåre,
This is similar to a problem I had with the xwin driver, and Hazen
confirmed with the Gnome Canvas driver (gcw) in PLplot. Hazen thought
it was a problem with the driver, and not with PLplot itself. I find
that plotting to a file, such as png or postscript, does not kill the
session. (see
http://mailman.jach.hawaii.edu/pipermail/perldl/2006-June/000423.html
for the end of that discussion.)
If you want to plot to xwin, I find that clicking on the window while
it's open and hitting 'enter' will allow you to issue a plend() without
everything hanging and the session crashing. I also find that doing
this causes all the lines to be drawn at once and the window immediately
closes, so you have to have quick eyes if you want to see what you have
plotted. As a result, I still use PGPLOT for my everyday plotting, and
switch to PLplot if I need to make a plot that I can't make in PGPLOT.
I do think this is a very good solution for the long term, but it works
for now since I haven't had time to dig into the PLplot xwin driver.

I'm trying out PLplot, but "plend ()" terminates the whole pdl-session
with:
X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).
What I like to try is overplotting several curves, like with "hold"
and "release" in PGplot, and then end the plotting session without
crashing...
All the best,
Kare
