      NAME
           graphics - access graphical and numerical commands

      SYNTAX
           graphics

      DESCRIPTION
           Graphics prefixes the path name /usr/bin/graf to the current
           $PATH value, changes the primary shell prompt to ^, and
           executes a new shell.  The directory /usr/bin/graf contains
           all of the Graphics subsystem commands.  To restore the
           environment that existed prior to issuing the graphics
           command, type EOT (control-d on most terminals).  To logoff
           from the graphics environment, type quit.

           The command line format for a command in graphics is command
           name followed by argument(s).  An argument may be a file
           name or an option string.  A file name is the name of any
           UNIX system file except those beginning with -.  The file
           name - is the name for the standard input.  An option string
           consists of - followed by one or more option(s).  An option
           consists of a keyletter possibly followed by a value.
           Options may be separated by commas.

           The graphical commands have been partitioned into four
           groups.

                Commands that manipulate and plot numerical data; see
                stat(1).

                Commands that generate tables of contents; see toc(1).

                Commands that interact with graphical devices; see
                gdev(1) and ged(1).

                A collection of graphical utility commands; see
                gutil(1).

           A list of the graphics commands can be generated by typing
           whatis in the graphics environment.
