| 3 |  |  | .SH NAME | 
| 4 |  |  | dgraph - do a set of graphs to a dumb terminal | 
| 5 |  |  | .SH SYNOPSIS | 
| 6 |  |  | .B dgraph | 
| 7 |  |  | [ |

| 16 |  |  | .SH DESCRIPTION | 
| 17 |  |  | .I Dgraph | 
| 18 |  |  | reads each graph | 
| 19 |  |  | .I file | 
| 20 |  |  | in sequence and converts it to a character plot | 
| 21 |  |  | displayable on any ascii device. | 
| 22 |  |  | If no files are given, the standard input is read. | 
| 23 |  |  | .PP | 
| 24 |  |  | Across the top of the plot, the extrema are printed. | 
| 25 |  |  | This is the only indication of the axis size. | 
| 26 |  |  | Curves are represented with their respective letter ('A' for | 
| 27 |  |  | curve A, etc.) at each point. | 
| 28 |  |  | Where two or more curves cross, a number is shown instead. | 
| 29 |  |  | .PP | 
| 30 |  |  | The size of the output array can be specified as a | 
| 31 |  |  | certain | 
| 32 |  |  | .I width | 
| 33 |  |  | and | 
| 34 |  |  | .I length. | 
| 35 |  |  | The default size is 79 by 22. | 
| 36 |  |  | .PP | 
| 37 |  |  | Variables can be set explicitly with | 
| 38 |  |  | .I +variable value | 
| 39 |  |  | options. | 
| 40 |  |  | See bgraph(1) for details. |
