Just curious:
[graph | map] | plot --> rio
[grap] | pic | troff | gs --> rio
why do we have this strange dichotomy?
if it is necessary [the dichotomy], do we have something like plot2pic???
(man plot(6) says:
Open & Close
o string Open plotting device. For troff, string specifies
the size of the plot (default is `6i').
however this is too brief explanation for me :-( to be able to utilize it
was DisplayPostScript (from NeXT) a bad idea? Or the [grap] | pic | troff |
gs --> rio way
if just want to see what you draw without feedback loop...
So, can I get PostScript out of map(1) somehow?
