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.
