[PD] Data structure array with last element pointing back to first element

[Jonathan Wilkes]

Here's a quick hack-- didn't check it for bugs.

The real solution would be to add a "-c" flag to [plot] to draw the trace back to element 0:

[plot -c etc.]

And maybe "-f COLOR" to draw the trace back to element 0 and fill the inside.
(Although that word probably be a bigger change.)
