- NAME
- gnuplot - an interactive plotting program
-
- SYNOPSIS
- gnuplot
-
- DESCRIPTION
- _G_N_U_P_L_O_T is a command-driven interactive function plotting
- program. Here are some of its features:
-
- Plots any number of functions, built up of C operators, C
- library functions, and some things C doesn't have like **,
- sgn(), etc. Also support for plotting scatter-plots of data
- files for comparing actual data to theoretical curves.
-
- User-defined X and Y ranges (optional Y auto-ranging),
- smart Y scaling, smart tic marks.
-
- User-defined constants and functions.
-
- Support through a generalized graphics driver for ReGis
- (VT125 and VT2xx), Tek 401x, AED 767, HP plotters, and QMS
- laser printers. The PC version supports IBM CGA áEGA and
- Corona 325 graphics. Other devices can be added simply, but
- will require recompiling.
-
- Shell escapes and command line substitution.
-
- Load and save capability.
-
- Output redirection.
-
- All computations performed in the complex domain. Just
- the real part is plotted by default, but functions like
- imag() and abs() and arg() are available to override this.

- Colin Kelley and Tom Williams (vu-vlsi!plot)
-
- BUGS
- The unixplot driver automatically writes to stdout, so you
- have to redirect the gnuplot's output from the shell.
