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 rio(1) window. 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 512×512 window in the middle of the screen.
