How to generate a time-history plot

So called time history plots can be created based on a previous displayed sequence of data-sets (see ``Toggle Dataset Sequence'') with the command ``graph''. In case you need nodal-values along a sequence of nodes (i.e. stress vs. x-axis) you might use the ``prnt'' command. Then you grap the information from the xterm with the mouse-pointer and store it in a file with the help of an editor. The contents of that file could be displayed with gnuplot.
