 Recent versions of the [[http://generic-mapping-tools.org|Generic Mapping Tools (GMT)]] ''plot'' (formerly ''psxy'') offer a nice feature which lets the user designate fronts on a line segment basis – for example if you have a number of normal faults and subduction zone line segments in a multi-segment file, you can give each line a different symbol, depending on to which side the fault dips (left or right in line direction). Recent versions of the [[http://generic-mapping-tools.org|Generic Mapping Tools (GMT)]] ''plot'' (formerly ''psxy'') offer a nice feature which lets the user designate fronts on a line segment basis – for example if you have a number of normal faults and subduction zone line segments in a multi-segment file, you can give each line a different symbol, depending on to which side the fault dips (left or right in line direction).
