> 8) Fix plrender @Jim: Thanks for that summary which leads me to a question for both you and Phil: Just to verify I understand the broad outline of the new design and what the -mfi option does, I assume if you had (say) a Python script consisting of a call to plparseopts, plinit, and plend with no other content, and you invoked that script as python myscript.py -mfi <plmetafile name> <other PLplot options> would that be equivalent to the new plrender <plmetafile name> <other PLplot options> ? If so, the C code for the new plrender is going to be quite small (but still worth it I believe just to avoid forcing the user to write a 3-line script if they ever want to take advantage of the -mfi option in this simplistic (replay plot with other device) way.
