PLOT(1G)            UNIX Programmer's Manual             PLOT(1G)



NAME
     plot - graphics filters

SYNOPSIS
     plot [ -Tterminal [ raster ] ]

DESCRIPTION
     These commands read plotting instructions (see _p_l_o_t(5)) from
     the standard input, and in general produce plotting instruc-
     tions suitable for a particular _t_e_r_m_i_n_a_l on the standard
     output.

     If no _t_e_r_m_i_n_a_l type is specified, the environment parameter
     $TERM (see _e_n_v_i_r_o_n(5)) is used.  Known _t_e_r_m_i_n_a_l_s are:

     4014 Tektronix 4014 storage scope.

     450  DASI Hyterm 450 terminal (Diablo mechanism).

     300  DASI 300 or GSI terminal (Diablo mechanism).

     300S DASI 300S terminal (Diablo mechanism).

     ver  Versatec D1200A printer-plotter.  This version of _p_l_o_t
          places a scan-converted image in `/usr/tmp/raster' and
          sends the result directly to the plotter device rather
          than to the standard output.  The optional argument
          causes a previously scan-converted file _r_a_s_t_e_r to be
          sent to the plotter.
