Sigbert, The plot2script function in the TeachingDemos package does essentially what Duncan talks about for you. Create your plot then run the function giving it a filename to save the info into (or run without arguments and then past into a script window or text editor (only tested on windows, if this does not work, go with the filename option)). The same warnings (and possibly more) apply, but this lets you see the steps to recreate the plot (and you can try modifying some parts and running the script as a way to update the plot).
One thing this tends to show is the number and type of steps that the plotting process gets broken down into. Hope this helps, -- Gregory (Greg) L.
