     _P_r_e_p_l_o_t produces a file named "plotfile" in the current
     working directory.  The current working directory must be
     the project directory.  The procedure _e_x_p must be used
     before you can use _p_r_e_p_l_o_t.

     The only argument, which must be given to _p_r_e_p_l_o_t is the
     cell name.  After the cell name you can specify one of more
     layers.  Default all layers are taken to be plotted.
