PENCIL

        [GREG1\]PENCIL [N] [/COLOUR C] [/DASHED D] [/WEIGHT W] [/DEFAULT]

    Selects virtual pen N and defines its attributes in terms of colour  (if
    supported  by  the device), dashed pattern and weight (thickness). Up to
    16 pens can be defined (0-15). Most plotting commands uses  the  current
    pen.  The major exception is RGMAP. Some commands also ignore the dashed
    patterns, in particular all labels and the BOX command.
      - The dashed pattern D must be in range 1 to 7, 1 means solid lines.
      - The weight factor W must be in range 1 to 5.
      - The colour index C is an integer in range -1 to 23. The colors 0  to
        7  are FIXED, the last 16 are user-definable, the color -1 means in-
        version. See the topic COLORS for more information on pen colors.
    PENCIL N /DEFAULT reset default attributes to Pen number N.  PENCIL /DE-
    FAULT  reset default attributes for all Pens, as defined at program ini-
    tialization.
