   Each unique variable {\sl var} causes an input point {\tt In}{\sl var}

   to be drawn at the input.
   The inputs are drawn in a row at the upper left by default.
   An {\tt L} in arg2 draws the inputs in a column at the left;
   {\tt R} reverses the order of the drawn inputs;
   {\tt V} scans the expression from right to left

   {\tt M} draws the left-right mirror image of the diagram;

   The inputs are labelled {\tt In1}, {In2}, \ldots and the function
   outputs are {\tt Out1}, {Out2}, \dots.
   Each variable {\sl var} corresponds also to one of the input array
   points with label {\tt In}{\sl var}.
