Pen Pattern Options


Purpose

The Pen Pattern Options opcode is a rendering option for storing the penset option selections in WHIP! data (as configured in the pen pattern editor)  and makes it possible to save penset options in WHIP! data . Additional parameters enable pen widths to be proportional to new plotted paper sizes; render as gray scale; and, use error diffusion instead of ordered dithering. Syntax
