************************************************************************
* PURPOSE : THIS PROGRAM IS A VERY GENERAL ROUTINE FOR PLOTS. IT ASKS  *
*         THE USER FOR THE NAME OF THE FILE FROM WHICH THE VALUES WHICH*
*         ARE TO BE PLOTTED ON THE X-AXIS AND THE Y-AXIS ARE READ.     *
*         THIS ROUTINE WAS USED TO PLOT THE PROJECTIONS OF THE TRAJECTO*
*         RIES AND THE MODELLED SENSOR SUBSYSTEM ON THE XY AND THE YZ  *
*         PLANES.                                                      *
* VARIABLES :                                                          *
* INPUT :                                                              *
* FNAME : NAME OF THE FILE FROM WHICH THE VALUES THAT ARE TO BE PLOTTED*
*        ON THE X-AXIS AND THE Y-AXIS ARE READ.                        *
* Ho,Vo : NUMBERS WHICH SPECIFY THE COORDINATE TO BE PLOTTED ON THE X- *
*        AXIS AND THE Y-AXIS.                                          *
* X, Y : 2-D ARRAYS WHOSE NUMBER OF ROWS EQUALS THE NUMBER OF LINES TO *
*       BE PLOTTED AND THE NUMBER OF COLUMNS FOR EACH ROW EQUALS THE   *
*       NUMBER OF POINTS IN EACH ROW.                                  *
* TITLE, XLAB, YLAB : RESPECTIVELY, THE TITLE OF THE PLOT, THE X-LABEL *
*                    AND THE Y-LABEL OF THE GRAPH.                     *
* XYZ : 1-D ARRAY INTO WHICH THE COORDINATES ARE READ INTO.            *
