Suffix Commands

This selection enables you to enter SAS statements or system-specific commands that are submitted after the graph is created. This is useful if system-specific commands are required to free a graphics output file and actually send it to the hard-copy device.

If the statements to be submitted are system commands, they must be preceded by an X and end with a semicolon (;).

For example, a statement such as the following may be necessary to send a spooled graphics output file to a plotter:

x plot myfile;

In this case, 'plot' would be a command defined at your site for sending graphs to a specific graphics device.
