### jgraph-8.3 README file

    $Revision: 8.3 $

    Jgraph takes the description of a graph or graphs in the standard
    input, and produces a postscript file on the standard output.  Jgraph
    is ideal for plotting any mixture of scatter point graphs, line
    graphs, and/or bar graphs, and embedding the output into LaTeX, or
    any other text processing system which can read postscript.

    The graph description language is simple enough to get nice looking
    graphs with a minimum of effort, yet powerful enough to give the user
    the flexibility to tailor the appearance of the graph to his or her
    individual preferences.  This includes plotting multiple graphs and
    laying them out separately on the page (or pages).

    The program is written in C, and shouldn't take anything too fancy
    or machine-dependent.  It has been tested on DECstations,
    sun3's, and sparc's (and is being used on many other types
    of machines, including those running VMS and DOS).

    There is a makefile, a man page (in jgraph.1), source code, and
    example graphs.

    Jgraph is available via anonymous ftp to princeton.edu, in the
    file pub/jgraph.Z.  This file is a compressed shell bundle file.

    Jgraph is also available from netlib, a mail archive server.
    To acquire jgraph from netlib, send a mail message to
    netlib@ornl.gov with nothing but the text:

    send jgraph.shar from misc

    It will respond by mailing you messages which comprise
    the file jgraph.shar.  To extract jgraph.shar from these
    messages, first save each one into a file.  Then for each
    of these files, strip off all the lines up to but not including
    the '#!/bin/sh' line.  Then run /bin/sh on each file.  When
    you're done, you should be left with the file jgraph.shar, upon
    which you then run /bin/sh -- this will produce all the jgraph
    source files.

    There is also a mailing list in which I inform users directly
    about bug fixes.  This is for those who don't read comp.sources.misc,
    or those who would like to hear about minor bug fixes which I
    haven't posted as a patch to comp.sources.misc.

    Please send me comments and/or bug reports.
