Description

The scilab graphics can be saved with the xbasimp command into unix files. The Scilab command :



 xbasimp(xx,'des.ps',0)

will save the graphics recorded in the graphic window xx in the file des.ps.xx. This file can't be directly send to a Postscript printer and a set of programs ( in the bin Scilab directory ) are given with Scilab to print it :

`BEpsf`	: The `BEpsf` command will create an Epsf file from your `des.ps.xx` under the name `des.epsf`, this Epsf file can be printed on a Postscript printer or inserted into an other Postscript document.
`Blatexpr`	: The `Blatexpr` command will create an Epsf file from your `des.ps.xx` mv des.ps.xx des.ps Blatexpr 1.0 1.0 des.ps under the name `des.epsf` and a LaTeX file `des.tex`. The file `des.tex` can be inserted in a LaTeX file in order to get the latex figure as follows ( the postscript file is inserted with the `special` command of LaTeX ) \input des.tex \dessin{caption}{label}
`Blpr`	: The `Blpr` command is used to print a set of graphics on a same sheet of paper. For example to print two graphics on a unique page, one can use : Blpr "Two graphics" file1.ps.0 file2.ps.1 \| lpr
`Blatexprs`	: The `Blatexprs` command is used to insert in a single LaTeX figure a set of Scilab Graphics Blatexprs res file1.ps.0 file2.ps.1 will create two files `res.ps` and `res.tex`. The file `res.tex` is used as in the `Blatexpr` command in order to get the figure.
