PLOT(1G)  —  UNIX Programmer’s Manual

NAME

plot − graphics filters

SYNOPSIS

plot [ −Tterminal [ raster ] ]

DESCRIPTION

These commands read plotting instructions (see plot(5)) from the standard input, and in general produce plotting instructions suitable for a particular terminal on the standard output. 

If no terminal type is specified, the environment parameter $TERM (see environ(7)) is used. Known terminals 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 plot 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 raster to be sent to the plotter.
