name:	The name of a data file in the data file list.
number:	The number of a data file in the data file list.

DESCRIPTION

This command allows you to plot a data set with error bars. The first data file you select (either by name or number) is plotted along the y axis. The second data file is the dy value. If a third data file is selected it is the positive dy value.

Assume you have an evenly spaced ascii file that contains two columns of numbers. The first is the y-value. The second column is the dy-value. You wish to read these into SAC and plot the data with error bars.:

SAC> READALPHA CONTENT YY MYFILE
SAC> PLOTDY 1 2
