grawk's Introduction

`grawk`

Simple Awk script for generating simple ASCII graphs.

This script needs file (or input data) with following structure:

label caption
height number
width number
offset x number
range x-min y-min x-max y-max
left ticks t-1 t-2 ... t-n
bottom ticks t-1 t-2 ... t-n

x-value-1 y-value-1
x-value-2 y-value-2
...
x-value-n y-value-n

Example

Suppose we want to create a graph from sample.graph file. This file contains:

label Test graph
height 23
width 80
offset x 3
range 0 0 100 100
left ticks 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90
bottom ticks 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90
5 5
10 10
15 15
20 20
25 25
30 30
35 35
40 40
45 45
50 50
55 55
60 60
65 65
70 70
75 75
80 80
85 85
90 90
95 95

Run command:

~/grawk $ awk -f grawk.awk sample.graph
