function word_plot ( w, p, color, number )

%*****************************************************************************80
%
%% word_plot() plots a polyabolo from its boundary word.
%
%  Discussion:
%
%    The user should call "clf()" before this function.
%    More plotting commands may be issued if preceded by the "hold on"
%    command.
%
%    The boundary word describes how to trace the boundary by starting
%    at a base point (i,j), and taking a sequence of steps of 
%    in one of 8 directions, as suggested by this diagram:
%
%      D--C--B
%   ^  |\ | /|
%   |  | \|/ |
%   J  E--P--A
%      | /|\ |
%      |/ | \|
%      F--G--H
%
%         I-->
%
%    If the current position P has coordinates (I,J), then
%    the step of given index moves to
%
%      A  (I+1,J  )
%      B  (I+1,J+1)
%      C  (I,  J+1)
%      D  (I-1,J+1)
%      E  (I-1,J  )
%      F  (I-1,J-1)
%      G  (I,  J-1)
%      H  (I+1,J-1)
