This is the last (4th) gnuplot shar file.
It contains the entire help directory tree for GNUPLOT. Make a help
subdirectory and unshar this file inside of it.
NOTE: This help works with the recently posted vms-like 'help' program
(sorry, couldn't find authors name) or it can be converted into a
VMS .HLP file with the "vmshelp.csh" script.

GNUPLOT is a command-driven interactive function plotting program.
It is case sensitive (commands and function names written in lowercase
are not the same as those written in CAPS). All command names may be
abbreviated, as long as the abbreviation is not ambiguous.

This command saves either user-defined functions, variables, or both
to the specified file.
Syntax: save {option} <filename>
Where <option> is either 'functions' or 'variables'. If no option
is used GNUPLOT saves both functions and variables.
'save'd files are written in text format and may be read by the
'load' command.
The filename must be enclose in quotes.

The 'plot' primary command of the program. It displays functions
and data in many, many ways. The full syntax of this command is:
plot {ranges} <function> {style} {, <function> {style}...}
Where <function> is either a mathematical expression or the name of a
data file enclosed in quotes. User-defined functions and variables may also
be defined here.
Curly braces {,} denote optional items.
A 'plot' command can be as simple as
plot sin(x)
or as complex as (!)
plot [t=1:100] [-pi:pi*2] tan(t), "data.1" with lines, besj0(t) with points

Plots may be displayed in one of three styles: 'lines', 'points', or
'impulses'. The 'lines' style connects adjacent points with lines. The
'points' style displays a small symbol at each point. The 'impulses' style
displays a vertical line from the X axis to each point.
Default styles are chosen with the 'set function style' and 'set data style'
commands.
Syntax: with <style>
Where <style> is one of 'lines', 'points', or 'impulses'. These keywords
may be abbreviated.
Examples: Displays:
plot sin(x) with impulses ; sin(x) with impulses
plot [-9:30] sin(x) w points, cos(x) ; sin(x) with points, cos(x) default
plot [] [-2:5] tan(x), "data.1" with l ; tan(x) default, "data.1" with lines

cat << \SHAR_EOF > 'ranges.HLP'
These two options specify the region of the plot which will be displayed.
Ranges may be provided on the 'plot' command line as synonyms for the
'set xrange' and 'set yrange' commands.
Syntax: [{dummy-var =} {xmin : xmax}] { [{ymin : ymax}] }
Where dummy-var is the independent variable ('x' is used by default) and
the min and max terms can be expressions or constants.
Both the min and max terms are optional. The ':' is also optional if
neither a min nor a max term is specified. This allows '[]' to be used
as a null range specification.
Specifying a Y range turns autoscaling OFF.
Examples:
plot cos(x) ; use current ranges
plot [-10:30] sin(pi*x)/(pi*x) ; set xrange only
plot [t = -10 :30] sin(pi*t)/(pi*t) ; same, but use t as dummy-var
plot [-pi:pi] [-3:3] tan(x), 1/x ; set y and xranges
plot [] [-2:sin(5)*-8] sin(x)**besj0(x) ; set only yrange
plot [:200] [-pi:] exp(sin(x)) ; set xmax and ymin only

Discrete data contained in a file can displayed by specifying the
name of the data file (enclosed in quotes) on the 'plot' command line.
Data files should contain one data point per line. A data point may be
specified either as an X and Y value separated by blank space, or as
just the Y value, in which case the program will use the number of the
coordinate as the X value. Coordinate numbers starts at 0 and are
incremented for each data point read. Blank lines and lines beginning
with ! or # will be treated as comments and ignored.
This example compares the data in the file population.dat to a theoretical
curve:
pop(x) = 103*exp((1965-x)/10)
plot [1960:1990] 'population.dat', pop(x)
The file population.dat might contain:
! Gnu population in Antarctica since 1965
1965 103
1970 55
1975 34
1980 24
1985 10

The 'shell' command spawns an interactive shell. To return to GNUPLOT,
type 'logout' if using VMS, 'exit' or your END-OF-FILE character if
using Unix, or 'exit' if using MS-DOS.
A single shell command may be spawned by preceding it with the ! character
at the beginning of a command line. Control will return immediately to
GNUPLOT after this command is executed. For example,
! dir
prints a directory listing and then returns to GNUPLOT.
$ is accepted as a synonym for ! in VMS.

command can later be 'load'ed. Any text file containing valid commands
can be created and then executed by the 'load' command. Files being
'load'ed may themselves contain 'load' commands.

In general, any mathematical expression accepted by C, FORTRAN, Pascal, or
BASIC is valid. The precedence of these operators is determined by the
specifications of the C programming language. White space (spaces and tabs)
is ignored inside expressions.
Complex constants may be expressed as the {real,imag}, where <real> and
<imag> must be numerical constants. For example {3,2} represents 3 + 2i;
{0,1} represents 'i' itself.

The following is a list of all the binary operators and their usage:

** a**b exponentiation
* a*b multiplication
/ a/b division
% a%b modulo
+ a+b addition
- a-b subtraction
== a==b equality
!= a!=b inequality
& a&b bitwise and
^ a^b bitwise exclusive or
| a|b bitwise inclusive or
&& a&&b logical and
|| a||b logical or
?: a?b:c terniary operation
The terniary operator evaluates its first argument (a). If it is true
(non-zero) the second argument (b) is returned, otherwise the
third argument (c) is returned.

When GNUPLOT is run, it looks for an initialization file to execute.
This file is called '.gnuplot' on Unix systems, and 'GNUPLOT.INI' on
other systems. If this file is not found in the current directory,
the program will look for it in your home directory (under MS-DOS,
the environment variable GNUPLOT should contain the name of this directory).
If this file is found, GNUPLOT executes the commands in this file. This
is most useful for setting your terminal type and defining any functions or
variables which you use often. The variable 'pi' is already defined for
you.

You may define your own functions and variables. User-defined functions and
variables may be used anywhere.
User-defined function syntax:
<function-name> ( <dummy-var> ) = <expression>
Where <expression> is defined in terms of <dummy-var>.
User-defined variable syntax:
<variable-name> = <constant-expression>
Examples:
w = 2
q = floor(tan(pi/2 - 0.1))
f(x) = sin(w*x)
sinc(x) = sin(pi*x)/(pi*x)
delta(t) = (t == 0)
ramp(t) = (t > 0) ? t : 0
The variable 'pi' is already defined for you.
