I want to draw a horizontal and vertical line on Unix. Please suggest some solution.

Please give more details...

There are many ways to do this, one could open Open Office Draw or Gimp and draw a horizontal/vertical line. One could create a c++ application that draws a line (vertical/horizontal) on the screen, or many other various ways one could "draw a line" in Unix.

There is just no way to get what you are trying to do from the lines you wrote.

I want a graph look like

12:00 3:00
Line |_________|

suggestion some solution

Where is the data for the graph coming from?

Are you just manually creating a graph in a graphic application?

Are you asking for a log analysis tool that will create a graph?

There is really no information here to know what you want. I am sorry really, but without more information I doubt anyone can help you as we do not fully understand what you need.

Yeah, I think you should need to be more specific and detailed with your question. But if all you need to do is print a simple horizontal/vertical line then you can try the ff.:

yes "|" | head -100 # Vertical line

yes "_" | head -100 # Horizontal line

while (( i <= 100 )); do
printf "_"
(( i = i + 1 ))
done

while (( i <= 100 )); do
printf "|"
(( i = i + 1 ))
done

Thanks angheloko, tell me one more thing

How to write 12:00 on 1st spot and 3:00 on 2nd

I'm not sure what you're getting at or what your desired output really is but if you just need to display:

12:00 3:00
Line |_________|

echo "12:00 3:00"
echo "Line |__________|"
