gives access to on-line information about C-PLOT's
commands and functions.
h
or
h topic
Enter
h with no parameters to display a listing of all C-PLOT
help topics.
When
h and the desired subject are entered, a help
file named

will be formatted to your screen size and
displayed.
Type
hcmds for a list of C-PLOT's
commands.
Help files reside in
$CPLOTHOME/help.
If
topic
includes a
/ character, the specified path (absolute or
relative) is used to find the file.
The help-file format is described in the
help_fmt
help file.
C-PLOT formats help files on the
fly to fit whatever terminal screens and workstation windows may be
in use.
The help files can be printed using the
troff,
ditroff,
or
gtroff
UNIX text formatters and the
head.man
and
Makefile
files in the
$CPLOTHOME/help_tools
directory.
See the
README
file in that directory for specific
information on running off printed copies of the help files.
Additional help files can be added by each site.
The site can create
a file named
$CPLOTHOME/motd
that C-PLOT
will display when it starts.
