## AquaTerm test script

# this script (hopefully) creates three windows in 
# Aquaterm (even if it is not running at the time this is launched)
#

import os

## TEST 1
# open an AQT window,
# draw and redraw into it
#
print >>gnuplot, "set style function linespoints"
print >>gnuplot, "set title 'Test 1'"

	print >>gnuplot, "set yrange[-%i:+%i];plot tan(x) lt 3 pt 5" % ((.1*n)+1,(.1*n)+1)

## TEST 2
# open a second AQT window
# draw into it with multiple colors
#
print >>gnuplot, "set term aqua 1"
print >>gnuplot, "set title 'Test 2'"
print >>gnuplot, "set style function lines"

## TEST 3
# open a third window
# draw a 3D surface
#
print >>gnuplot, "set term aqua 2"
print >>gnuplot, "set title 'Test 3'"
print >>gnuplot, "set pm3d at s hidden3d 100"
