NAME
       graph - draw a graph

SYNOPSIS
       graph [-a spacing [start]] [-b] [-c string] [-g gridstyle]
	    [-l label] [-m connectmode] [-s]
	    [-x [l] lower [upper [spacing]]]
	    [-y [l] lower [upper [spacing]]] [-h fraction]
	    [-w fraction] [-r fraction] [-u fraction] [-t] ...

DESCRIPTION
       graph with no options takes pairs of numbers from the standard input as
       abscissaes and ordinates of a graph.  Successive points	are  connected
       by  straight  lines.   The standard output from graph contains plotting
       instructions suitable for input to the command lpr-g (see lpr(1B)).

       If the coordinates of a point are followed by a nonnumeric string, that
       string is printed as a label beginning on the point. Labels may be sur‐
       rounded with quotes "...", in which case they may be empty  or  contain
       blanks and numbers; labels never contain NEWLINE characters.

       A  legend  indicating  grid range is produced with a grid unless the -s
       option is present.

OPTIONS
       Each option is recognized as a separate argument. If a specified	 lower
       limit exceeds the upper limit, the axis is reversed.

       -a spacing[ start ]

	   Supply  abscissaes automatically (they are missing from the input);
	   spacing is the spacing (default 1). start is the starting point for
	   automatic abscissaes (default 0 or lower limit given by -x).

       -b

	   Break (disconnect) the graph after each label in the input.

       -c string

	   String is the default label for each point.

       -g gridstyle

	   Gridstyle  is the grid style: 0 no grid, 1 frame with ticks, 2 full
	   grid (default).

       -l label

	   label is label for graph.

       -m connectmode

	   Mode (style) of  connecting	lines:	0  disconnected,  1  connected
	   (default).  Some devices give distinguishable line styles for other
	   small integers.

       -s

	   Save screen, do not erase before plotting.

       -x [l] lower [ upper [ spacing ] ]

	   If l is present, x axis is logarithmic. lower and upper  are	 lower
	   (and	 upper)	 x  limits.  spacing, if present, is grid spacing on x
	   axis.  Normally these quantities are determined automatically.

       -y [l] lower [ upper [ spacing ] ]

	   If l is present, y axis is logarithmic. lower and upper  are	 lower
	   (and	 upper)	 y  limits.  spacing, if present, is grid spacing on y
	   axis.  Normally these quantities are determined automatically.

       -h fraction

	   fraction of space for height.

       -w fraction

	   fraction of space for width.

       -r fraction

	   fraction of space to move right before plotting.

       -u fraction

	   fraction of space to move up before plotting.

       -t

	   Transpose horizontal and vertical axes. Option -x  now  applies  to
	   the vertical axis.

BUGS
       graph  stores  all points internally and drops those for which there is
       no room.

       Segments that run out of bounds are dropped, not windowed.

       Logarithmic axes may not be reversed.
