PLOT(1G)                COMMAND REFERENCE                PLOT(1G)



NAME
     plot - plot an x-y graph

SYNOPSIS
     plot [ -a ] [ -b ] [ -cchar(s) ] [ -d ] [ -Fvector ] [ -g ]
     [ -m ] [ -rn ] [ -xn ] [ -xa ] [ -xin ] [ -xln ] [ -xhn ] [
     -xnn ] [ -xt ] [ -yn ] [ -ya ] [ -yin ] [ -yln ] [ -yhn ] [
     -ynn ] [ -yt ] [ vector ... ]

DESCRIPTION
     Output is a GPS that describes an x-y graph.  Input is one
     or more vector(s).  Y-axis values come from vector(s), x-
     axis values from the -F option.  Axis scales are determined
     from the first vector(s) plotted.  If no vector is given,
     the standard input is assumed.

OPTIONS
     -a  Suppress axes.

     -b  Plot graph with bold weight lines, otherwise use medium.

     -cstring
         Use the characters of string for plotting characters,
         implies option -m.  The first character of string is
         used to mark the first graph, the second is used to mark
         the second graph, etc.

     -d  Do not connect plotted points, implies option -m.

     -Fvector
         Use vector for x-values, otherwise the positive integers
         are used.

     -g  Suppress background grid.

     -m  Mark the plotted points.

     -rn Put the graph in GPS region n, where n is between 1 and
         25 inclusive.

     -xn Position the graph in the GPS universe with x-origin at
         n.

     -xa Omit x-axis labels.

     -xin
         n is the x-axis tick increment.

     -xln
         n is the x-axis low tick value.

     -xhn

         n is the x-axis high tick value.

     -xnn
         n is the approximate number of ticks on the x-axis.

     -xt Omit x-axis title.

     -yn Position the graph in the GPS universe with y-origin at
         n.

     -ya Omit y-axis labels.

     -yin
         n is the y-axis tick increment.

     -yln
         n is the y-axis low tick value.

     -yhn
         n is the y-axis high tick value.

     -ynn
         n is the approximate number of ticks on the y-axis.

     -yt Omit y-axis title.

EXAMPLES
     The following example plots vector A against the positive
     integers.


          plot A

     The following example plots vector B against vector A.  Y-
     axis ticks begin at 0, no x-axis labels are printed, and the
     plot is placed in region 5 of the GPS universe.


          plot -r5,yl0,xa,FA B

     The following example plots vectors A and B against the
     positive integers, with y-axis ticks going from the lowest
     value in A and B to the highest value in A and B (see
     hilo(1g)).


          plot -`hilo -oy A B` A B

     The following example plots vector C against A and vectors D
     and E against B.  Y-axis scale is determined from C, x-axis
     from A.
