To plot tags, Gap uses a file describing the available tag types and their colours. It is possible for users to edit their own local copies of this file to create custom tag types. The first file read defines a set of tags and colours.
Subsequent files read can define additional tags and also override the earlier tag definitions.
Thus, as is similar to the unix shell PATH variable, the leftmost pathnames have highest precedence for the resultant tag definitions. This page is maintained by James Bonfield . Last generated on 1 December 1997.
