Producing Graphical Output (Plots)
Graphical output from AST is performed though an Object called a Plot,
which is a specialised form of FrameSet. A Plot does not represent the
graphical content itself, but is a route through which plotting
operations, such as drawing lines and curves, are conveyed on to a
plotting surface to appear as visible graphics.
