<h4 class="subsection">plot_summary help/usage (<span class="option">--help</span>)</h4>

<p><a name="index-plot_005fsummary-help-3"></a>
This is the automatically generated usage text for plot_summary.

  <p>The text printed is the same whether selected with the <code>help</code> option
(<span class="option">--help</span>) or the <code>more-help</code> option (<span class="option">--more-help</span>).  <code>more-help</code> will print
the usage text by passing it through a pager program. 
<code>more-help</code> is disabled on platforms without a working
<code>fork(2)</code> function.  The <code>PAGER</code> environment variable is
used to select the program, defaulting to <span class="file">more</span>.  Both will exit
with a status code of 0.
