[scilab-Users] How to replace Matlab stairs function in Scilab

[David Tschische]

Thank you Mathieu, "plot2d2" seems to be the answer. 
At least it support most parameters of the Matlab pendent in some way.

Another way I just discovered is using "plot2d" in combination with setting
the polyline settings:

handle = get("hdl");
handle.children(1).polyline_style = 2;

Regards,

Dave
