label(s)
char s[];
line(x1, y1, x2, y2)
circle(x, y, r)
arc(x, y, x0, y0, x1, y1)
move(x, y)
cont(x, y)
point(x, y)
linemod(s)
char s[];

closepl()
AVAILABILITY
These routines are available with the
Graphics
software installation option.
Refer to
[a manual with the abbreviation INSTALL]
for information on how to install optional software.
DESCRIPTION
These subroutines generate graphic output in a relatively
device-independent manner. See
plot.5
for a description of their effect.
openpl()
must be used before any of the others
to open the device for writing.
closepl()
flushes the output.
String arguments to
label()
and
linemod()
are
null-terminated
and do not contain
NEWLINE
characters.
Various flavors of these functions exist
for different output devices.
They are obtained by the following
