.Sh DESCRIPTION
These commands read plotting instructions (see

from the standard input or the specified
.Ar files  ,
and in general
produce plotting instructions suitable for
a particular

on the standard output.
The

flag may be used to specify the device's output resolution
(currently only the Imagen laser printer understands this option).

If no
.Ar terminal
type is specified, the environment parameter
.Ev $TERM
(see

is used.
