PLOT(1G) BSD PLOT(1G)
NAME
plot - graphics filters
SYNOPSIS
plot [ -Tterminal ] [ -rresolution ] [ file... ]
DESCRIPTION
These commands read plotting instructions (see plot(5)) from the standard
input or the specified files, and in general produce plotting
instructions suitable for a particular terminal on the standard output.
The -r flag may be used to specify the device's output resolution
(currently only the IMAGEN* laser printer understands this option).
If run from a Display Manager window, a new window is created to display
the plot.
If no terminal type is specified, the environment parameter $TERM (see
environ(7)) is used. Known terminals include:
apollo Any Apollo display.
apollo.15P Apollo 15-inch display.
apollo.19L Apollo 19-inch display.
apollo.color Apollo color display.
apollo.800.color
Apollo 800-line color display.

These versions of plot use the -g option of lpr(1) to send
the result directly to the plotter device rather than to
the standard output.
