STREAM
STREAM lines/arrows/stop/slow/scale
The STREAM parameter controls several parameters dealing with
the overall streamline calculation and display. "Lines" is a
real number multiplier which controls the number (density) of
streamlines drawn (default 1.0); "arrows" is a real number
multiplier which controls the number of arrowheads displayed
(default 1.5*lines); "stop" is a real number multiplier which
controls how close a streamline comes to another streamline
before drawing is discontinued (default 0.5); "slow" is a
real number multiplier which controls the minimum vector speed
threshold for stopping a streamline (default 0.67); "scale" is
a real number multiplier which controls how much the input vector
field is scaled prior to streamline calculation (default 0.33).
