	System III and at least SVR0 included a package variously
	referred to as "stat" or "UNIX Graphics" or "/usr/bin/graf/*".
	I don't know if it survived the Great Unbundling that happened
	on the 3B2 machines or if you have to pay extra for it, but it
	used to be included.  Look for "graphics" in Section 1 of the
	manual, and "gps" in section 4 or 5.  Primary documentation is
	"The UNIX Graphics Guide".

	stat is a bunch of statistical and graphics programs that pipe
	together.  The data format is stuff-separated-by-white-space,
	with no special treatment of newlines.  output format is kind
	of tektronix-oriented, and the documentation is a bit
	non-UNIXy, but it seems reasobnable for a small package.

	Alternatively, Gary Perlman from Wanginst posted a package
	called UNIX|STAT a few years ago.  If he's still around you may
	be able to get it from him.
