SYNTAX

plot [−Tterminal[raster]]

DESCRIPTION

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

If no terminal type is specified, the environment parameter $TERM is used.  For futher information, see environ(.). Known terminals are:

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.
