The only documentation I know of is the code itself, and the little
bit that describe produces.

Based on a very quick reading of the code, show-open-plot seems to
take a string which is then sent to the openmath plot program.

This is a standard Common Lisp function. It basically creates a new
stream where you can write results to. When with-output-to-string is
done, it returns a string containing everything you've written.

Perhaps this could be done with xmaxima. I am not an xmaxima user,
though.
