- These files implement UNIX plot(1,3,5) clones on top of the
- PC/AT graphics library posted recently in comp.sources.unix.
- (v18i{059..065}, gl_plot/part{01..07} by dtlewis!lewis).
-
- libplot.a: library of plot(3) compatible functions that
- produce files in plot(5) format.
-
- plot: filter that displays files in plot(5) format
- on a variety of devices (cga, hercules, ega,
- ibm graphics printer, laserjet).
-
- Options to the plot program are of the form -Tdevice, where
- device is one of the following:
-
- cga (CGA) cga adapter, low (high) resolution
- herc (HERC) hercules adapter, page 0 (page 1)
- ega ega adapter
- lp matrix printer
- lj laserjet printer
-
- Alternatively, one may specify the output device type with the
- GLMODE environment variable (see the gl graphics library docs).
-
- This software was tested under Microport System-V/AT. No change
- should be required for other PC UNIX versions (except for some
- configuration parameters in the Makefile). Porting to non-UNIX
- PC environments should be straightforward.
