## B.9 `plot2plane`: Draws a plane plot

`plot2plane` draws plots on a Cartesian 2-dimensional surface.

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

       plot2plane layer1=mark in1=cat.fits x1=RMAG y1=RMAG-BMAG

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: `mark`, `size`, `sizexy`, `xyvector`, `xyerror`, `xyellipse`, `xycorr`, `link2`, `mark2`, `poly4`, `mark4`, `polygon`, `area`, `central`, `lines`, `marks`, `yerrors`, `xyerrors`, `line`, `linearfit`, `label`, `arealabel`, `contour`, `grid`, `fill`, `quantile`, `histogram`, `kde`, `knn`, `densogram`, `gaussian`, `function`.
