PLplot supports a large number of command line arguments, but it is
up to the user to pass these to PLplot for processing at the
beginning of execution.
<a class="link" href="plparseopts.html" title="plparseopts: Parse command-line arguments"><code class="function">plparseopts</code></a> is responsible for parsing
the argument list, removing all that are recognized by PLplot, and
taking the appropriate action before returning. There are an
extensive number of options available to affect this process. The
command line arguments recognized by PLplot are given by the -h
option:

</p><pre class="screen">
<code class="prompt">%</code> <strong class="userinput"><code>x00c -h</code></strong>
Usage:
examples/c/x00c [options]
PLplot options:
-h Print out this message
-v Print out the PLplot library version number
-verbose Be more verbose than usual
-debug Print debugging info (implies -verbose)
-dev name Output device name
-o name Output filename
-display name X server to contact
-px number Plots per page in x
-py number Plots per page in y
-geometry geom Window size/position specified as in X, e.g., 400x300, 400x300-100+200, +100-200, etc.
-wplt xl,yl,xr,yr Relative coordinates [0-1] of window into plot
-mar margin Margin space in relative coordinates (0 to 0.5, def 0)
-a aspect Page aspect ratio (def: same as output device)
-jx justx Page justification in x (-0.5 to 0.5, def 0)
-jy justy Page justification in y (-0.5 to 0.5, def 0)
-ori orient Plot orientation (0,1,2,3=landscape,portrait,seascape,upside-down)
-freeaspect Allow aspect ratio to adjust to orientation swaps
-portrait Sets portrait mode (both orientation and aspect ratio)
-width width Sets pen width (0 <= width)
-bg color Background color (FF0000=opaque red, 0000FF_0.1=blue with alpha of 0.1)
-ncol0 n Number of colors to allocate in cmap 0 (upper bound)
-ncol1 n Number of colors to allocate in cmap 1 (upper bound)
-fam Create a family of output files
-fsiz size[kKmMgG] Output family file size (e.g. -fsiz 0.5G, def MB)
-fbeg number First family member number on output
-finc number Increment between family members
-fflen length Family member number minimum field width
-nopixmap Don't use pixmaps in X-based drivers
-db Double buffer X window output
-np No pause between pages
-server_name name Main window name of PLplot server (tk driver)
-dpi dpi Resolution, in dots per inch (e.g. -dpi 360x360)
-compression num Sets compression level in supporting devices
-cmap0 file name Initializes color table 0 from a cmap0.pal format file in one of standard PLplot paths.
-cmap1 file name Initializes color table 1 from a cmap1.pal format file in one of standard PLplot paths.
-locale Use locale environment (e.g., LC_ALL, LC_NUMERIC, or LANG) to set LC_NUMERIC locale (which affects decimal point separator).
-eofill For the case where the boundary of the filled region is self-intersecting, use the even-odd fill rule rather than the default nonzero fill rule.
-drvopt option[=value][,option[=value]]* Driver specific options
-mfo PLplot metafile name Write the plot to the specified PLplot metafile
-mfi PLplot metafile name Read the specified PLplot metafile
All parameters must be white-space delimited. Some options are driver
dependent. Please see the PLplot reference document for more detail.

</p><p>
The command-line options can also be set using the <a class="link" href="plsetopt.html" title="plsetopt: Set any command-line option"><code class="function">plsetopt</code></a> function, if invoked before <a class="link" href="plinit.html" title="plinit: Initialize PLplot"><code class="function">plinit</code></a>.
</p><p>
Some options may not be recognized by individual drivers. If an option is not recognized but should be, please contact the driver author via the plplot mailing lists.
</p><p>Many drivers have specific options that can be set using the -drvopt command line option or with <a class="link" href="plsetopt.html" title="plsetopt: Set any command-line option"><code class="function">plsetopt</code></a>. These options are documented in <a class="xref" href="file-drivers.html" title="Chapter 5. Drivers which implement file devices">Chapter 5, <i>Drivers which implement file devices</i></a> and <a class="xref" href="interactive-drivers.html" title="Chapter 6.
