This +will affect surface-plots in hidden3d- and nohidden3d-mode. It gets +rid of the necessity of having to change samples in hidden3d-mode when +you actually want to change the isosamples for the first dummy +variable. For people that are lazy and for compatibility you can also +type "set isosamples 30". This will set the value to 30 in both +directions. For completeness I did the same with "samples". Thus you +can say "set samples 50,100" to get different sampling rates for each +dummy variable. This only affects surface-plots in nohidden3d-mode. +Again, you still can say "set samples 50". This will set both sampling +rates to 50. For 2d-plots the first value of samples is used. + +Summary: + +Suppose isosamples is set to 4,5 in hidden3d-mode.
