Hi Kåre: Glad the basic build-tree test (ctest) and the basic install-tree test are working for you. Note the library version shown by the latter should be 5.7.2 (corresponding to the CVS version of PLplot) rather than 5.6.1 as implied by what you said. I believe it is only the CVS version of PLplot that configures the test_perl.sh file properly (via LD_LIBRARY_PATH) so that you always get the PLplot library version that you just built and installed as opposed to some system version.

Yes, that NULL C argument above stands for zdefined which is moved to a different place in the PDL argument for probably historical reasons. Note, the C API for both plshade (example 15) and plshades (example 16) is quite tricky and hard to emulate in other languages so your best choice for these two functions is to consult the implementation of the PDL interface to PLplot. That project has been implemented independently of PLplot and is separately maintained by Doug Hunt. (Doug, if you are lurking on this list please speak up.) Anyhow, Kåre, you picked one of the most difficult cases to deal with (plshades), and other PDL calls to PLplot functions usually follow the general rules (dropped redundant dimension arguments as in nx and ny above) much better with no argument list rearranging.
