   I have a question about the setdash operator. I am trying to dump a plot which is
composed of lots of tiny line segments. I wanted the plot to look  dot-dashed  say.
If I use the setdash operator with each of the line segements, 
the final effect is not what I expect since the line segments are tiny and sometimes overlapping.
Is there a way to get around this ??
                           
                  Thanks in advance.
