B.11 plot2time: Draws a time plot

plot2time draws plots where the horizontal axis represents time. The time axis can be labelled in various different ways including MJD, decimal year and ISO-8601 form.

Positional coordinates are specified as t, y pairs, e.g.:

   plot2time in1=series.cdf layer1=line t1=EPOCH y1=ENERGY

Note: this plot type is experimental. As currently implemented it lacks some important features. It may be improved or withdrawn in a future version.

Content is added to the plot by specifying one or more plot layers using the layerN parameter. The N part is a suffix applied to all the parameters affecting a given layer; any suffix (including the empty string) may be used. Available layers for this plot type are: line, mark, yerror, spectrogram, label, function.
