NAME
muplot - plot a multi-curve figure from multiple data by using GnuplotSYNOPSIS
muplot [OPTION]... [STYLE] [FILE] [AXES]DESCRIPTION
Muplot is a simple, non-interactive gnuplot-wrapper to plot a multi-curve figure from multiple data. It can produce PostScript, PDF, PNG or JPEG output file formats.OPTIONS
- --help|-H
- display help
- --version
- output version and license message
- -h
- display short help
- -V
- print program version number
- -s
- create PostScript file
- -S
- send PostScript output to STDOUT (the same as '-s -o -')
- -n
- create PNG file
- -j
- create JPEG file
- -p
- create PDF file (requires the gnuplot "pdfcairo" driver)
- -c <cmd>
- execute gnuplot command(s) (the default plot style is used)
- -m
- monochrome plot (valid only for PostScript)
- -l
- set plot size to 800x600 (valid for PNG and JPEG)
- -o
- base name of the output file
- -q
- quiet mode (all messages except errors to be suppressed)
- -i
- ignore local command file './.muplotset'
Styles:
- l
- lines
- p
- points
- lp
- lines and points (default)
- pp
- circle points
- d
- dots
- b
- boxes
- g
- grid
- e
- errorbars - default used columns are 1:2:3 (x:y:yerror)
- a
- fields with arrows; The data file has a special format in this case. Use 'prefield' to prepare such data files.
- dt=<fmt>
- date/time series with the specified format; For example: dt="%H:%M.%S@%H:%M" where the first part, in front of "@", defines the data format, and the second part defines the format that will be used for tic labels. Here, hours and minutes are separated by `:', respectively minutes and seconds by `.' Another example could be a date: dt="%Y-%m-%d".
- u=<fmt>
- user specified format as defined in Gnuplot
Axes:
- x:y,x:y-z
- columns in the file definig the x/y-axes of the curve(s); Default are 1:2 or 1:2:3 for data with errors. In case that only one column is provided the default axes are 0:1 - the x-axis will be a simple index then.
File(s) could be a single file name whereas '-' means <stdin>, many files enclosed in '' or "" like "file1 file2 file3", or any valid shell pattern as for example "*.dat". The files '$HOME/.muplotset' and './.muplotset', if existing, will be included at the beginning of the gnuplot script. The command block between "#BEGIN" and "#END" in those files will be pasted to the end of the script. If you want that the global '$HOME/.muplotset' is ignored, create in your local directory a file named '.muplotset.noglobal'.
EXAMPLES
1) On X-terminal view a multi-curve plot of data files with extension 'dat'
- muplot l "*.dat"
2) Print a sinus curve as a black-and-white PostScript on a PS-printer
- muplot -m -S -c "set title 'Funtion f(x)=sin(x)'; plot sin(x);" | lpr
3) Plot data from file "example.dat" using columns 1:2, 3:4, and 3:5 as x/y-axes in the multi-curve plot; a PostScript file with the name "example.ps" is automatically created.
- muplot -s lp example.dat 1:2,3:4-5
4) View data where the third column is a date of the form 'yyyy-mm-dd'
- cat example_counts_per_day.dat | muplot dt="%Y-%m-%d" - 3:1
