PLOT/LYMAN  [spectrum] [lamcen1,..] [size1,..] [label1..] [session]
	    Plots a spectrum in the FIT/LYMAN fashion
\us\pu
Purpose:    
	    Plots a spectrum table at different wavelengths, on a multiple
            window in the FIT/LYMAN fashion.\\
	    This command is designed to provide:\\
	    a) faster plotting than the PLOT/TAB one, which is rather
		slow when used for huge data;\\
	    b) plotting a spectrum table using a setup defined in FIT/LYMAN.

Syntax:     
            PLOT/LYMAN [spectrum] [lamcen1,..] [size1,..] [label1..] [session]
 \\
\ys\pa
	    spectrum = spectrum table to be plotted\\
			Default is the SPECTAB keyword.	
 \\
\ap\pa
	    lamcen   = central wavelenghts for each plot window, separated by 
    		        commas.
			Default are the last plotted wavelengths, as stored
 			in LYPAR.tbl
 \\
\ap\pa
	    size     = sizes of each plot window, separated by commas. 
                        If only one value is specified, this is assumed
			for all windows.
			If [lamcen1,..] is specified, default is 10 Angstroms.
			Otherwise, default are the sizes stored in LYPAR.tbl
 \\
\ap\pa
	    label    = labels of each plot window, separated by commas. 
                        If only one value is specified, this is assumed
			for all windows.
			If [lamcen1,..] is specified, default is no label.
			Otherwise, default are the sizes stored in LYPAR.tbl
 \\
\ap\pa
	    session =  FIT/LYMAN session to load.
			Defalut is current session as defined in the LYPAR 
			table.
			This parameter overrides the previous ones.

Examples:
\ex
            PLOT/LYMAN  
	        Plots the last spectrum fitted.
\xe\ex
            PLOT/LYMAN emmispe 5000,5100 10,15 Lya,Lyb
            	Plots the spectrum emmispe (FITLYMAN format) on two windows, 
                at wavelengths 5000 and 5100 A and large 10 and 15 A,
                respectively. First plot is labeled "Lya1", the second "Lya2"
\xe\ex
            PLOT/LYMAN spec2 ? ? ? ? MgII
            	Plots the spectrum spec2 at the wavelengths specified
		by a session called MgII, previously saved within FIT/LYMAN.
