77 TERMINAL <strong>gnuplot</strong> 4.3 155<br />
Part IV<br />
Terminal types<br />
77 Terminal<br />
Gnuplot supports a large number of output formats. These are selected by choosing an appropriate<br />
terminal type, possibly with additional modifying options. See set terminal (p. 135).<br />
This document may describe terminal types that are not available to you because they were not configured<br />
or installed on your system. To see a list of terminals available on a particular <strong>gnuplot</strong> installation,<br />
type ’set terminal’ with no modifiers.<br />
77.1 Aed767<br />
The aed512 and aed767 terminal drivers support AED graphics terminals. The two drivers differ only<br />
in their horizontal ranges, which are 512 and 768 pixels, respectively. Their vertical range is 575 pixels.<br />
There are no options for these drivers.<br />
77.2 Aifm<br />
NOTE: this terminal driver is outdated. Since Adobe Illustrator understands PostScript level 1 directly,<br />
you should use set terminal post level1 instead.<br />
Several options may be set in aifm — the Adobe Illustrator 3.0+ driver.<br />
Syntax:<br />
set terminal aifm {} {""} {}<br />
is either color or monochrome; "" is the name of a valid PostScript font;<br />
is the size of the font in PostScript points, before scaling by the set size command. Selecting<br />
default sets all options to their default values: monochrome, "Times-Roman", and 14pt.<br />
Since AI does not really support multiple pages, multiple graphs will be drawn directly on top of one<br />
another. However, each graph will be grouped individually, making it easy to separate them inside AI<br />
(just pick them up and move them).<br />
Examples:<br />
set term aifm<br />
set term aifm 22<br />
set size 0.7,1.4; set term aifm color "Times-Roman" 14<br />
77.3 Amiga<br />
The amiga terminal, for Commodore Amiga computers, allows the user to plot either to a screen<br />
(default), or, if Kickstart 3.0 or higher is installed, to a window on the current public screen. The font<br />
and its size can also be selected.<br />
Syntax:<br />
set terminal amiga {screen | window} {""} {}<br />
The default font is 8-point "topaz".<br />
The screen option uses a virtual screen, so it is possible that the graph will be larger than the screen.<br />
77.4 Apollo<br />
The apollo terminal driver supports the Apollo Graphics Primitive Resource with rescaling after window<br />
resizing. It has no options.
