Abstract

This is a user´s manual for Groda, a graphic output utility for Cantor. Cantor is a relational data base system, developed at FOA. Groda has several ways for graphic presentation, including scatter plots, bar charts and maps. A lot of attributes are available: line styles, colors, markers etc. Two editors (plotting,environment) provide the user with a flexible means for working out a good choice for a parameter description. This can be stored in the systems data base and edited later. Groda should be easily ported to other systems, since it is written in Pascal and uses a very simple basic graphics module (Elfin). At present there are versions for Apollo and VAX computers.
