Package: octave-epstk Version: 2.1-2 Severity: wishlist Very often, while plotting big quantities of data, I have redundant points. For example this X Y vector:
0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 2 1 8 1 3 1 8 4 4 1 9 5 8 1 could be reduced to 8 1 8 2 8 3 8 4 9 5 as far as plotting is concerned. This optimisation reduces the size of the eps file and the time it needs to be rendered either on screen or by a printer. I had cases where such an optimisation reduces the size by ten times. It would be nice it plot() did this. It should merge two successive segments if the second one is a prolongation of the first one, with a tolerance depending on the plot scale. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'testing-proposed-updates') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.4.30-pre2-pr-hrt-1kHz-1 Locale: LANG=C, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) (ignored: LC_ALL set to C) Versions of packages octave-epstk depends on: ii octave2.1 1:2.1.73-7 GNU Octave language for numerical octave-epstk recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
