Description:
Given the design of the plot(5) package and the design of the
Tektronix 4014, it's hard to do the right thing when a "label"
call is immediately followed by a "cont" call.
Repeat-By:
Compile the following program
main()
{
openpl();
move(200, 200);
label("x");
cont(400, 400);
closepl();
}
and run it from a 4014-like terminal.
Fix:
Add these lines to the end of man/man5/plot.5:
.SH BUGS
A
.I label
instruction immediately followed by a
.I cont
instruction does the wrong thing on a 4014.
