GRAPHICS(1G)             DOMAIN/IX SYS5              GRAPHICS(1G)



NAME
     graphics - access graphical and numerical commands

USAGE
     graphics [ -r ]

DESCRIPTION
     Graphics prefixes the path name /usr/bin/graf to the current
     $PATH value, changes the primary shell prompt to ^, and exe-
     cutes a new shell.  The directory /usr/bin/graf contains all
     of the Graphics subsystem commands.  If the -r option is
     given, access to the graphical commands is created in a res-
     tricted environment; that is, $PATH is set to
     :/usr/bin/graf:/rbin:/usr/rbin and the restricted shell,
     rsh, is invoked.  To restore the environment that existed
     prior to issuing the graphics command, type EOT (control-d
     on most terminals).  To logoff from the graphics environ-
     ment, type quit.

     The command line format for a command in graphics is command
     name followed by argument(s).  An argument may be a file
     name or an option string.  A file name is the name of any
     DOMAIN/IX system file except those beginning with -.  The
     file name - is the name for the standard input.  An option
     string consists of - followed by one or more option(s).  An
     option consists of a keyletter possibly followed by a value.
     Options may be separated by commas.

     The graphical commands have been partitioned into four
     groups.

          Commands that manipulate and plot numerical data; see
          stat(1G).

          Commands that generate tables of contents; see toc(1G).

          Commands that interact with graphical devices; see
          gdev(1G).

          A collection of graphical utility commands; see
          gutil(1G).

     A list of the graphics commands can be generated by typing
     whatis in the graphics
      environment.
