     ----hhhh _h_o_s_t_n_a_m_e
	   Perform action with queue on host _h_o_s_t_n_a_m_e, else use
	   default specified in "hosts_pltr".  For example "qplot
	   -h hostx ..." sending plot to queue on _h_o_s_t_x.

     ----xxxxdddd _u_s_e_r_n_a_m_e [host]
	   Equal to "pltrm -a" for specified user.  If the queue
	   entries are from another host, _h_o_s_t must be specified.

     ----xxxxdddd _i_d [host]
	   Equal to "pltrm id".  If the queue entry is from
	   another host, _h_o_s_t must be specified.

     ----xxxxhhhh   Put queue in the hold-state (at end of cluster being
	   plotted).

     ----xxxxhhhh _u_s_e_r_n_a_m_e [host]
	   Hold all entries of specified user.	If the queue
	   entries are from another host, _h_o_s_t must be specified.

     ----xxxxhhhh _i_d [host]
	   Hold entry with specified _i_d.  If the queue entry is
	   from another host, _h_o_s_t must be specified.

     ----xxxxhhhhkkkk  Kill currently active plot process in a descent way.
	   It also removes the lock file and puts the queue in
	   the hold state.

     ----xxxxhhhhllll  Removes the lock file after some crash.  It puts the
	   queue in the hold state.

     ----xxxxrrrr   Release queue, start plotting.

     ----xxxxrrrr0000  Release queue, start plotting, fill up full A0.

     ----xxxxrrrr1111  Release queue, start plotting, restrict to A1.

     ----xxxxrrrr _u_s_e_r_n_a_m_e [host]
	   Release all held entries of specified user.	If the
	   queue entries are from another host, _h_o_s_t must be
	   specified.

     ----xxxxrrrr _i_d [host]
	   Release held entry with specified _i_d.  If the queue
	   entry is from another host, _h_o_s_t must be specified.

     ----xxxxpppp _u_s_e_r_n_a_m_e [host]
	   Give priority to all entries of specified user.  If
	   the queue entries are from another host, _h_o_s_t must be
	   specified.

     ----xxxxpppp _i_d [host]
	   Give priority to entry with specified _i_d.  If the
	   queue entry is from another host, _h_o_s_t must be speci-
	   fied.

     The _p_l_t_r program is normally invoked through the qplot pro-
     gram to make plots, and should not be invoked directly to
     make plots (unless you know what you are doing).

     _P_l_t_r can be used by a number of privileged users (and root)
     to perform some other actions, such as setting the queue in
     the hold-state or releasing the queue, giving a plot highest
     priority, or deleting entries.  Note that all '-x' options
     (except '-xd') are privileged.  See the options for detailed
     information.

     Use pltq to find the _i_d, the _h_o_s_t, and _u_s_e_r_n_a_m_e of entries
     in the plot-queue.

     $ pltr -xd 00352 -h dutentb

     Deletes the entry with id 00352 on remote host dutentb.

     $ pltr -xr robert dutentc -h dutentb

     Releases the hold entries of user robert that came from
     dutentc on remote host dutentb.
