TextFile

This directory contains the sources for gnutex, a general-purpose
plotting program, as modified by David Kotz at Duke University in
1987-1988. At this point it is likely out of date with the current
version of gnuplot; I may try to synchronize them someday, but the
mods for Latex support and other support are significant. I have
generally tried to retain the style of the original and to modify as
little as possible to make this possible.

This version should compile successfully on Vaxes, Suns, Microvaxes,
IBM PCs, and HP-UX (a System V box). See other READMEs.

Documentation is in the doc directory, including man pages. A user
manual is in doc/manual/. Sample gnutex input files can be found in
doc/example/.

lasergnu is a system-dependent shell script to gnutex a simple plot
and send it to the Textronix-compatible Imagen laser printer. Good
luck.

PLEASE send comments, suggestions, bugs etc to dfk@cs.duke.edu. I make
no guarantees about maintenance or updates but will try to put out
patches as things change. I consider this program to still be
developing.

MAILINGS: 
If you want to be on my gnutex mailing list send me a note with a good
return address. This is not a two-way mailing list; I'm not going to
moderate a group here! This will provide a way for me to announce
updates and poll the users about things.

COPYRIGHT: 
  You may use this program as you wish, as far as I'm concerned, and
as long as you follow the usage statement given by the gnuplot authors
in each file.

THANKS: 
Thanks to many people who have pointed out bugs, made suggestions, and
sent additions, including Bob Desinger, Paul E.  McKenney, J. D.
McDonald, and Micah Beck; to bd@hp-sde.sde.hp.com, for the help-file
code; and to the local users who put up with the newest bugs.

PATCHES:
patch1: Enhancement to add "set format" command. See help/set-show/format.
patch2: Small change to source so VMS compilers accept it. 
patch3: New manual written (see doc/). Several small but annoying bugs
fixed.  Note that start-up initialization file is no long ".gnuplot"
but ".gnutex". 
patch4: Mostly changes to make it work on an IBM PC.
patch5: Some bug fixes, System V support, Imagen support.
patch6: Small changes to accomodate wierd systems, FIG support.
