N. Custom Plot Symbols

GMT comes with several custom plot symbols ready to go. They are used in psxy and psxyz using the -Sk option. To make your own custom plot symbol, please follow the instructions given in the man pages of those two programs. The following is a plot of each symbol. Note that we only show the symbol outline and not any fill. Be aware that some symbols may have a hardwired fill or no-fill component. Also note that some symbols, in particular the geometric ones, duplicate what is already available as standard built-in symbols.
