I've been looking at easy to fix bugs on the bug tracker and noticed the one regarding plsmema in the f95 bindings.
plsmema (and plsmem) are marked as part of the Common API, but they are not consistently propagated to all the bindings and there is no standard example to test them. The only example using them is a specific python test. I've added support for C++, f77 and f95, though I'm not sure how the fortran support will work, and certainly the f95 interface needs fixing up (there was already a comment about this for plsmem). It would be nice to have a standard example to demonstrate the use of these functions and to test they work. I would propose that a simple way would be to use one of the existing examples then use plmkstrm, plsdev, plcpstrm, plreplot to save the plot to memory. Could do what the python script does and save it as a png file (or other simple raster format). This would mean that it would still work as a "standard" example, but would produce some additional output. It would look very similar to what happens with example 1 at the moment. Longer term, plsmem supports the mem, memqt and memcairo devices, but plsmema support is only available to the memqt and memcairo devices. Adding support to the mem driver would be nice, and not necessarily too hard. Any thoughts?
