st: re: changing the default colors in a twoway graph

[Kit Baum <baum@bc.edu>]

You can choose a scheme that is designed for monochrome--i.e. add 
option scheme(s2mono) rather than the default, which assumes color 
output.

You can specify exactly what will happen to the lines with something 
like

tsline wpi ln_wpi, lpattern(dash solid)

which will cause the line patterns to change (which works for B&W), but 
leaves them in color since the style has not been changed. In contrast

tsline wpi ln_wpi, scheme(s2mono)

will change both the line patterns and switch to monochrome.
