NAME

grafig - generates numerical graphs in Fig code

SYNOPSIS

grafig <data_stream >fig_code

DESCRIPTION

Grafig transforms a stream of data points on its standard input to a numerical graph on its standard output. The input is in the form of pairs of numbers representing x and y coordinates, seperated by white space. Thus, the set of points {(x1, y1), (x2, y2), ...} could represented by the input file

x1 y1
x2 y2
...

The output is in the form of Fig code, which can be viewed and edited with the fig(1) graphics editor, and can be incorporated into TeX(1) troff(1), or PostScript documents using the TransFig(1) translation package.

This early version of grafig takes NO options or flags. The output has only one possible form.
