Tru64 Managers,

If you don't have S-PLUS 6 installed on a Tru64 Unix machine, feel free
to ignore this email and accept my apologies for a slightly off-topic
submission.

I think one of my faculty has uncovered a bug in S-PLUS 6 for Tru64 Unix.
Versions 5 and 6 for Linux don't exhibit the bug, nor do versions 3 and 5
for Tru64 Unix. If you have a spare minute, please help me verify this bug
before submitting a bug report -- there is the off chance that the bug is
in my site's installation.

Run the following code:

   x <- c(0.10,0.20,0.25,0.30,0.35,0.40,0.50,0.65,0.75,0.85,1.00,1.25,1.50)
  y1 <- c(0.0039, 0.0285, 0.0535, 0.0717, 0.0655, 0.1147, 0.1600, 0.1226,
          0.0971, 0.0812, 0.0656, 0.0448, 0.0279)
  y2 <- c(0.0208101, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0)

  postscript(file="test.ps")
  plot(x,y1,xlim=c(0,1.5),type="l")
  points(x,y1,pch=0)
  lines(x,y2,lty=4)
  points(x,y2,pch=4)
  dev.off()

This will generate a plot in the file test.ps. The following are two PS
files which demonstrate how it should and should not look. Please tell
me which one yours resembles.

Thanks in advance!
