| Description |

aka SM, is an interactive plotting programme with a flexible command
language. |
| Version installed |
Fedora-26: 2.4.36 (installed in November
2012).

| Usage |
At
the command prompt, type:
sm
A startup configuration file is needed:
/home/user/.sm.
A template, that you can copy, is available in /usr/pkg/smongo/sm/lib/sm/.sm.
If you have a "termcap" line in your .sm file in Linux (possibly a
leftover from some older version), delete it. |

| Additional Info |
SM's TeX Emulation: "If you want to make
SM understand TeX strings you should define the variable TeX_strings (if
you put a line "TeX_strings 1" in your .sm file
this will be done automatically). You can, of course, undefine
it at any time to revert to the old-fashioned strings described
below. Using TeX-style strings is strongly recommended by the authors;
all future and most recent improvements to SM's labels are only
supported in TeX mode."
Issues:
Because of some problem with "to
many capabilities in graphcap entry", SM might mess up with the
prompt and command line editing/recalling. This is easy to fix:
in SM, just type termtype vt100.
If you get error messages on
the termcap file upon starting SM, please add this line in your .sm file:
termcap /usr/pkg/smongo/sm/lib/sm/termcap
