9.1.1. - Type <return> twice with z commands



All the z commands except ze require you to enter a second <return> at the keyboard before the PLOT-> prompt will again be displayed. This feature accommodates filters displaying graphics on terminals that have a distinct graphics mode and that erase the graphics when put back into text mode. You can view the graphics display, then enter the second <return> to get back to text mode.

The current graphics filter isn't necessarily associated with the screen. If you are using a printer filter and enter a z command and <return>, nothing will appear on the screen and the plot won't be sent to the printer until you enter the second <return>.
