This plot was created with Gnuplot.

and data files:

solidlines.dat

#   X       Y
    -1.5    0
    -0.5    0
    Skip
    -0.5    1

filledpoints.dat

    0.5     0.5

hollowpoints.dat

#   X       Y
    -0.5    0
    -0.5    1
    0.5     1
    0.5     0

Then I opened the resulting SVG file in Inkscape, changed the fill style for the circles (either blue or white fill), line styles (to do dashed lines), brought the plot lines to the top, and then brought the circles to the top (over the lines).

I also made all the lines 2 px wide, and made the axes 50% transparency.
