.\" NAME should be all caps, SECTION should be 1-8, maybe w/ subsection
.\" other parms are allowed: see man(7), man(1)
.SH NAME
pgplot \- scientific plotting subroutine library
.SH SYNOPSIS
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
This manual page documents briefly the
.BR pgplot
plotting subroutine library.
This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution
because the original program does not have a manual page.
.PP
.B pgplot
is a large collection of plotting routines callable from C, as well as
FORTRAN (also perl, see below). Many drivers are included to render the
plots on devices. To use PGPLOT, you must set the environment variable,
PGPLOT_DIR to "/usr/lib/pgplot". That is , under csh, type
setenv PGPLOT_DIR /usr/lib/pgplot . Under bash, type
PGPLOT_DIR="/usr/lib/pgplot";export PGPLOT_DIR
.SH "SEE ALSO"
Documentation on the library can be found in the directory,
.B /usr/doc/pgplot .
There exists a perl interface to pgplot, pgperl, also available for Debian.
Extensive documentation can be found at
.B http://astro.caltech.edu/~tjp/pgplot/
.SH AUTHOR
This manual page was written by John Lapeyre <lapeyre@homey.physics.arizona.edu>,
for the Debian GNU/Linux system (but may be used by others).
