I merged all except

  mkoctfile_cpp
  mkoctfile_cpp_cleanup_o_files

This merge represents a lot of work done by you and Shai, so thanks!
I think we are well on our way to having much better control over
plotting now.

I've noticed a few problems, but I thought it would be best to get the
code merged, then work on fixing the things I noticed.  I'll work on
fixing the things I can, or post questions in separate threads.

Thanks,
