Note:         
              SHOW/GRAPHICS displays the current setting of the graphic 
              package, grouped as follows:\\
              \ \ \ graphics device and plot file;\\
              \ \ \ axes, scales, tickmarks;\\
              \ \ \ plot mode, fonts, symbols, lines, etc ...\\

              In de first group the user can find which graphics device is
              currently assigned (Device:), which data has plotted last with a
              PLOT/ command (see below), and which plot file is currently 
              active.\\

              The name of the data file, together with the coordinates specs.
              (world coordinates, pixel coordinates) of the LAST PLOT command 
              (NOT overplot command) are kept in the system. The GET/GCURSOR 
              command will use this information to retrieve information from
              graph displayed.\\

              For the meaning of the other parameters consult the documentation
              of the SET/GRAPHICS command.\\

              The graphics setup is stored in a number of special keywords:
              PLISTAT, PLRSTAT, PLCSTAT, PLCMETA, PLCDATA, and PLRGRAP. For  
              more information about the graphics and these keywords read the 
              MIDAS Environment document or use the command HELP/KEYWORD.
