CHAPTER 4 HP-GL/2 - 19
PA - Plot absolute
PA [ X, Y [,...]] [;]
X ; X coordinate of the cursor movement destination
Y ; Y coordinate of the cursor movement destination
 Coordinates are absolute values in user or current units.
 Whether used with or without parameters the command establishes absolute plotting as the plotting mode.
 The command moves the cursor to the specified coordinates, drawing straight lines, only when the pen is
down.
 In symbol mode PA draws the specified symbol at each point in the parameter list.
 In polygon mode the specified coordinate pairs are placed in the polygon buffer.
 If an odd number of coordinates are specified, the final (unpaired) coordinate is ignored.

PR - Relative coordinate pen move
PR [X, Y [,...]] [;]
X ; X coordinate of the cursor movement destination
Y ; Y coordinate of the cursor movement destination
 Coordinates used are relative values in current units.
 Whether used with or without parameters the command establishes relative plotting as the plotting mode.
 The command moves the cursor to the specified coordinates, drawing straight lines, only when the pen is
down.
 You can specify any number of coordinated pairs and plotting is performed in the order the coordinates are
specified.
 In symbol mode PR draws the specified symbol at each point in the parameter list.
 In polygon mode the specified coordinate pairs are placed in the polygon buffer.
 If an odd number of coordinates are specified, the final (unpaired) coordinate is ignored.
