This is the Unix Plot file interpreter.
by Joel Swank
There are two versions: Plot2am is a simple CLI only, one file at a time
plotter. PlotView has more features and an intuition interface. To get
a closer representation of plot output these routines try to load a font
called 'puny.font' (included). If this fails they will use the default.
For more information on PlotView read the file hlp.txt or select the HELP
menu item. Here is info on using plot2am:
I have downloaded some test plot files. Run them as follows:
plot2am -x550 -y425 wdotted.plot
plot2am -x550 -y425 wdotdashed.plot
plot2am -x550 -y425 wlongdashed.plot
plot2am -x550 -y425 wshortdashed.plot
plot2am -x550 -y425 wsolid.plot
plot2am -x1100 -y1000 xxx.plot
The -x and -y options are scaling values and need to be determined by
experiment for each plot file. Default is -x550 -y450;
After viewing the plot file click the (invisable) close gadget in the
upper left corner Plot2Am window.
I have used the arc routine from the public domain Sunplot package by
Sjoerd Mullended.
PlotView uses the FileIO, and ColorWindows packages by RJ Mical.
