.SH SYNOPSIS
.B plot
[
.BI -T terminal
]
.SH DESCRIPTION
These filters read plotting instructions (see
.IR  plot (5))
from the standard input,
and in general
produce plotting instructions suitable for
a particular
.I terminal
on the standard output.
.PP
If no
.I terminal
type is specified, the environment parameter
.L TERM
(see
.IR environ (5))
is used.

.SH BUGS
A persistent
.I plot
layer on a 5620 terminal imitates
.LR "term 33" , 
it loses most abilities of a
.IR mux (9.1)
layer; see
.IR term (9.1).
