33.SH DESCRIPTION
34These subroutines
35generate
36graphic output in a relatively
37device-independent manner.
38See
39.IR plot (5)
40for a description
41of their effect.
42.I Openpl
43must be used before any of the others to open the
44device for writing.
45.I Closepl
46flushes the output.
47.PP
48String arguments to
49.I label
50and
51.I linemod
52are null-terminated, and do not contain newlines.
53.PP
54Various flavors of these functions exist for different
55output devices.
56They are obtained by the following
