plot

PLOT(1) 						      General Commands Manual							   PLOT(1)

NAME

       plot - graphics filter

SYNOPSIS

       plot [ file ...	]

DESCRIPTION

       Plot  interprets  plotting instructions (see plot(6)) from the files or standard input, drawing the results in a newly created 81/2(1) win-
       dow.  Plot persists until a newline is typed in the window.  Various options may be interspersed with the file arguments; they take  effect
       at the given point in processing.  Options are:

       -d	 Double  buffer: accumulate the plot off-screen and write to the screen all at once when an erase command is encountered or at end
		 of file.

       -e	 Erase the screen.

       -c col	 Set the foreground color (see plot(6) for color names).

       -f fill	 Set the background color.

       -g grade  Set the quality factor for arcs.  Higher grades give better quality.

       -p col	 Set the pen color.

       -w	 Pause until a newline is typed on standard input.

       -C	 Close the current plot.

       -W  x0,y0,x1,y1
		 Specify the bounding rectangle of plot's window.  By default it uses a 512x512 window in the middle of the screen.
