<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>


<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>psvelo</b>
reads data values from <i>files</i> [or standard input] and
generates <i>PostScript</i> code that will plot velocity
arrows on a map. Most options are the same as for
<b><A HREF="psxy.html">psxy</A></b>, except <b>&minus;S</b>. The <i>PostScript</i>
code is written to standard output. The previous version
(<b>psvelomeca</b>) is now obsolete. It has been replaced by
<b>psvelo</b> and <b><A HREF="psmeca.html">psmeca</A></b>.</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><i>files</i>
List one or more file-names. If no files are given,
<b>psvelo</b> will read standard input.</p>

can be overridden on the command line by appending <b>c</b>,
<b>i</b>, or <b>m</b> to the scale/width value. When central
meridian is optional, default is center of longitude range
on <b>&minus;R</b> option. Default standard parallel is the
equator. For map height, max dimension, or min dimension,
append <b>h</b>, <b>+</b>, or <b>-</b> to the width,
