OK. So try:
Code:
rm p.ps 2> /dev/null
awk 'NR == 1 || $1 == ">" {
        if(cmd != "") close(cmd)
        cmd = sprintf("%s %s >> p.ps", "psxy -JX4/4 -R0.3/0.6/0/1.2",
                "-B0.1f0.05:\"\":/a0.2f0.1:\"y\":/a0.2f0.1:.\"\":WSne -m -K")
        if(NR > 1) next
}
{       print | cmd
}' p.dat

Delete the rm command if you want this to add to an existing p.ps file rather than creating a new one for each p.dat file.

TRACE-CMD-EXTRACT(1)													      TRACE-CMD-EXTRACT(1)

NAME
trace-cmd-extract - extract out the data from the Ftrace Linux tracer. SYNOPSIS
trace-cmd extract [OPTIONS] DESCRIPTION
The trace-cmd(1) extract is usually used after trace-cmd-start(1) and trace-cmd-stop(1). It can be used after the Ftrace tracer has been started manually through the Ftrace pseudo file system. The extract command creates a trace.dat file that can be used by trace-cmd-report(1) to read from. It reads the kernel internal ring buffer to produce the trace.dat file. OPTIONS
-p plugin Although extract does not start any traces, some of the plugins require just reading the output in ASCII format. These are the latency tracers, since the latency tracers have a separate internal buffer. The plugin option is therefore only necessary for the wakeup, wakeup-rt, irqsoff, preemptoff and preemptirqsoff plugins. With out this option, the extract command will extract from the internal Ftrace buffers. -O option If a latency tracer is being extracted, and the -p option is used, then there are some Ftrace options that can change the format. This will update those options before extracting. To see the list of options see trace-cmd-list. To enable an option, write its name, to disable the option append the characters no to it. For example: noprint-parent will disable the print-parent option that prints the parent function in printing a function event. -o outputfile By default, the extract command will create a trace.dat file. This option will change where the file is written to. SEE ALSO
