rem PLOT1 file
rem This batch file uses the HPLOT program to make a plot as a background
rem job. The HPLOT program outputs HPGL plotter commands to the file HP.DAT;
rem this file is then printed to a plotter connected to COM1 using the DOS
rem PRINT command. The MODE command is used to set the baud rate of COM1
rem and to redirect printer output to COM1.
rem
rem NOTE: Use this batch file to make only one plot at a time unless
rem you have a plotter that automatically loads the paper such as
rem the HP 7550 plotter. Also note that a 3-D plot can result in
rem a very large HP.DAT file (as large as .5 MB).
