This file contains instructions for building the X11 version of xgraph. First, you should examine the file hard_devices.c. This file lists the default hardcopy parameters for each hardcopy output device. Some of these defaults are site-specific and should be taylored to your site. For example, at our site, the default HPGL plotter is called "paper" and the default Postscript printer is called "lps40". You can change these names in this file. See hard_devices.h for a description of the initialization fields. If you do not like the default values for xgraph options, you can change these by editing the default values as listed on the third page in xgraph.c. Remember that changing these values changes the default behaviour for everyone running the program. Personal preference should be left for specification in the user's Xresources or Xdefaults file. A makefile is provided for compiling the program. Several example data sets are provided in the examples directory. Try the following to check out xgraph: % xgraph examples/xgtest.xg This should produce a graph with a series of parabolic curves. Other documentation files are included. A summary of these files is given below: README.ANNOUNCE Message submitted to comp.windows.x announcing the program and how to obtain it. README.GENERAL Important notes about differences and quirks of the program. README.HARDCOPY Documenation for writing your own hardcopy driver library.
