/**
<p>A signal plotter that plots in an oscilloscope style, meaning that the
horizontal axis is wrapped and that there is finite persistence. This
plotter contains an instance of the Plot class from the Ptolemy plot
package as a public member. Data at the input, which can consist of
any number of channels, are plotted on this instance. Each channel is
plotted as a separate data set. The input is of type DoubleToken.
</p><p>The horizontal axis represents time. The <i>width</i> parameter is
a double that gives the width of the plot. The horizontal axis will be
labeled from 0.0 to <i>width</i>. It defaults to 10.0.
</p><p>If the <i>persistence</i> parameter is positive, then it specifies
the amount of time into the past that points are shown. It also
defaults to 10.0, so any point older than 10.0 time units is erased and
forgotten.</p>
