[mesa-users] pgstar in binary module

[Bill Paxton]

Hi Pablo,

Your workaround would work great for some things.   
Here's another workaround that might be okay for some other cases -- use the pgstar ability to show a 2nd curve using data from a file.
e.g., for a TRho_Profile plot for star1, you could write the data for star2 to the file at each timestep and set TRho_Profile_fname to fhe filename.
Same sort of trick works for TRho history plots (set TRho_fname), and any other plot that takes a filename for extra data.

Not a general solution, but it will do as a workaround perhaps.

For now, it is 1 star per plot, with the option to have multiple plot windows for the multiple stars.    The software issue is that all of the all of the pgstar machinery is associated with a single star -- so it will be a substantial rewrite to change the plots to deal with multiple stars.  nothing impossible, just not at the top of my list right now.
