Managing long/complicated plot commands?

HI all,

I rather often run into a problem of my plot commands being too long,
typically resulting in a not-very-helpful error message such as:

"$plot_polar" line 21: invalid character \

It took a lot of head scratching to realize the root of the problem. I
assume there are strong reasons for both the limitation on command length
and the poor error message.

I cannot be the only one running into this problem. The situation being
what it is, what are the rest of you doing to manage when you run up
against this limit? Replacing `linecolor` with `lc`, etc, will only get me
so far and at the expense of readability.

Many thanks,
Bjorn
