Commands

This section lists the commands acceptable to gnuplot in alphabetical order. Printed versions of this document contain all commands; on-line versions may not be complete. Indeed, on some systems there may be no commands at all listed under this heading.

Note that in most cases unambiguous abbreviations for command names and their options are permissible, i.e., "p f(x) w li" instead of "plot f(x) with lines".

In the syntax descriptions, braces ({}) denote optional arguments and a vertical bar (4#4) separates mutually exclusive choices.
