+B<DEF>:I<vname>=I<RRD file>:I<ds name>:I<CF>[:[I<time range>][:I<step size>]]
+
+B<VDEF>:I<vname>=I<RPN expression>
+
+B<CDEF>:I<vname>=I<RPN expression>
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+These three instructions collect the data out of the B<RRD> files,
+optionally altering it (think of a bytes to bits conversion) and
+if desired you can define variables containing useful information
+such as maximum, mininimum etcetera. Two of the instructions use
+a language called B<RPN> which is described in its own manual page.
+
+=head1 DEF
+
+B<DEF>:I<vname>=I<RRD file>:I<ds name>:I<CF>[:[I<time range>][:I<step size>]]
+
+This command fetches data from an B<RRD> file. The virtual name
+I<vname> can then be used throughout the rest of the script. By
+default, an B<RRA> which contains the correct consolidated data
+at an appropriate resolution will be chosen. The resolution can
+be overriden with the L<--step|rrdgraph/item_Time> option.
+I<Not yet implemented:>[ The resolution can be overriden by specifying
+the B<step size>.] I<Not yet implemented:> [ The time span of this data
+is the same as for the graph by default, you can override this by
+specifying the B<time range>. ]
+
+If the resolution of the data is higher than the resolution of off
+graph, the data will be further consolidated. This may result in
+a graph that spans slightly more time than requested.
+Ideally each point in the graph should correspond with one B<CDP>
+from an B<RRA>. For instance, if your B<RRD> has an B<RRA> with
+a resolution of 1800 seconds per B<CDP>, you should create an
+image with width 400 and time span 400*1800 seconds (use appropriate
+start and end times, such as C<--start end-8days8hours>).
+
+Example: C<DEF:mydata=router.rrd:ds0:AVERAGE>
+
+Example: C<DEF:januari=router.rrd:ds0:AVERAGE:start=20010101 end=20010201>
+
+=head1 VDEF
+
+B<VDEF>:I<vname>=I<RPN expression>
+
+This command returns a value and/or a time according to the B<RPN>
+statements used. The resulting I<vname> will, depending on the
+functions used, have a value and a time component. When you use
+this I<vname> in another B<RPN> expression, you are effectively
+inserting its value just as if you had put a number at that place.
+The variable can also be used in the various graph and print
+elements. I<Not yet implemented:> [ Everywhere you can insert a
+number, you can also use the B<VDEF> (provided that it is set of course) ]
+
+Example: C<VDEF:avg=mydata,AVERAGE>
+
+=head1 CDEF
+
+B<CDEF>:I<vname>=I<RPN expression>
+
+This command creates a new set of data points (in memory only, not
+in the B<RRD> file) out of one or more other data series. The B<RPN>
+instructions are used to evaluate a mathematical function on each
+data point. The resulting I<vname> can then be used further on in
+the script, just as if it were generated by a B<DEF> instruction.
+
+Example: C<CDEF:mydatabits=mydata,8,*>

+B<PRINT:>I<vname>B<:>I<format>
+
+Depending on the context, either the value component or the time

+
+=item *
+
+B<%S> is similar to B<%s>. It does however use a previously defined
+magnitude unit. If there is no such unit yet, it tries to define
+one (just like B<%s>). However, if the value is zero, the magnitude
+unit stays undefined. Thus, formatter strings using B<%S> and no B<%s>
+will all use the same magnitude unit except for zero values.

+B<VRULE:>I<time>B<#>I<rrggbb>[B<:>I<legend>]
+
+Draw a vertical line at I<time>. Its color is composed from three
+hexadecimal numbers specifying the color components (00 is off, FF is
+maximum) red, green and blue. Optionally a legend box and string is
+printed in the legend section. I<time> may be a number or a variable
+from a B<VDEF>. It is an error to use I<vname>s from B<DEF> or B<CDEF> here.
+
+B<LINE>{B<1>|B<2>|B<3>}B<:>I<vname>[B<#>I<rrggbb>[B<:>I<legend>]][B<:STACK>]
+
+Draw a line of the specified width into the graph. If the color
+is not specified, the drawing is done 'blind'. This is useful when
+stacking something else on top of this line. Also optional is the
+legend box and string which will be printed in the legend section
+if specified. The B<vname> can be generated by B<DEF>, B<VDEF> and
+B<CDEF>. If the optional B<STACK> modifier is used, this line is
+stacked on top of the previous element which can be a B<LINEx> or
+an B<AREA>
+
+B<AREA:>I<vname>[B<#>I<rrggbb>[B<:>I<legend>]][B<:STACK>]
+
+See B<LINEx>, however the area between the x-axis and the line will
+also be filled.
+
+B<STACK:>I<vname>[B<#>I<rrggbb>[B<:>I<legend>]]
+
+I<Depriciated. Use the B<STACK> modifiers on the other commands.>
+I<Note: the comments on stacking are still valid...>
+Repeats the last B<LINEx> or B<AREA> however it doesn't start at the
+x-axis but rather on top of the previous element. This implies that
+there needs to be something to stack on. An invisible B<LINEx> or
+B<AREA> is something you can stack on!
+
+Note: When you stack on something that was I<unknown>, the whole
+stack will be I<unknown> for that point in time. If the beginning
+is undefined, there's no way to end somewhere... If you want to
+graph this stacked variable anyway you need to make sure that the
+B<LINEx> or B<AREA> it gets stacked on is not unknown. Use a CDEF
+instruction with B<IF> and B<UN> to do so.
+
+B<THE NEXT STUFF IS NOT YET IMPLEMENTED>
+
+B<SHIFT:>I<offset in seconds>
+
+Using this command B<RRDtool> will graph the following elements
+with the specified offset. For instance, you can specify an
+offset of S<( 7*24*60*60 = ) 604800 seconds> to "look back" one
+week. Make sure to notify the viewer you did so...
+The offset will be valid until the next B<SHIFT> command, which
+can have an offset of zero to restore normal graphing.
+As with the other grapher elements, you can specify a number or
+a variable here.
+
+B<RRDtool> has now support for B<pie charts>. If you include the
+B<PART> command, the canvas is extended to make room for a chart
+(or, if no other graph elements are used, the canvas is solely
+used for the pie chart). The size of the canvas is determined by
+the lesser of L<width and height|rrdgraph/item_Size>.
+
+B<PART:>I<vname>B<#>I<rrggbb>[B<:>I<legend>]
+
+Draw a part of pie. Pie parts will be concatenated, the first one
+will start at the top and parts will be created clockwise.
+The size of the part is defined by the value part of
+the L<VDEF|rrdgraph_data/VDEF> function. It should return
+a number between 0 and 100, being a percentage.
+Providing wrong input will produce undefined results.

+[ , I<E<lt>RPN expressionE<gt>>]
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+If you have ever used a traditional HP calculator you already know
+B<RPN>. The idea behind B<RPN> is that you have a stack and push
+your data onto this stack. Whenever you execute an operation, it
+takes as many elements from the stack as needed. Pushing is done
+implicit so whenever you specify a number or a variable, it gets
+pushed automatically.
+
+At the end of the calculation there should be one and exactly one
+value left on the stack. This is the outcome of the function and
+this is what is put into the I<vname>. For B<CDEF> instructions,
+the stack is processed for each data point on the graph. B<VDEF>
+instructions work on an entire data set in one run.
+
+Example: C<CDEF:mydatabits=mydata,8,*>
+
+This means: push variable I<mydata>, push the number 8, execute
+the operator I<+>. The operator needs two elements and uses those
+to return one value. This value is then stored in I<mydatabits>.
+As you may have guessed, this instruction means nothing more than
+I<mydatabits = mydata * 8>. The real power of B<RPN> lies in the
+fact that it is always clear in which order to process the input.
+For expressions like C<a = b + 3 * 5> you need to multiply 3 with
+5 first before you add I<b> to get I<a>. However, with parentheses
+you could change this order: C<a = (b + 3) * 5>. In B<RPN>, you
+would do C<a = b, 3, +, 5, *> and need no parentheses.
+
+=head1 OPERATORS
+
+=over 4
+
+=item Boolean operators
+
+B<LT, LE, GT, GE, EQ, NE>
+
+I<Note: NE is not yet implemented>
+
+Pop two elements from the stack, compare them for the selected condition
+and return 1 for true or 0 for false. Comparing an I<unknown> or an
+I<infinite> value will always result in 0 (false).
+
+B<UN, ISINF>
+
+I<Note: ISINF is not yet implemented>
+
+Pop one element from the stack, compare this to I<unknown> respectively
+to I<positive or negative infinity>. Returns 1 for true or 0 for false.
+
+B<IF>
+
+Pops three elements from the stack. If the last element is 0 (false),
+the first value is pushed back onto the stack, otherwise the second
+popped value is pushed back. This does, indeed, mean that any value
+other than 0 is considered true.
+I<Note: Should this change? It should IMHO as all the other functions
+would return unknown if A,B or C were unknown>
+
+Example: C<A,B,C,IF> should be read as C<if (A) then (B) else (C)>
+
+Z<>
+
+=item Comparing values
+
+B<MIN, MAX>
+
+Pops two elements from the stack and returns the lesser or larger.
+The two numbers shouldn't be I<infinite> or I<unknown>, if they are
+that value is pushed back onto the stack as the result.
+
+B<LIMIT>
+
+Pops two elements from the stack and uses them to define a range.
+Then it pops another element and if it falls inside the range, it
+is pushed back. If not, an I<unknown> is pushed.
+
+The range defined includes the two boundaries (so: a number equal
+to one of the boundaries will be pushed back). If any of the three
+numbers involved is either I<unknown> or I<infinite> this function
+will always return an I<unknown>
+
+Example: C<CDEF:a=alpha,0,100,LIMIT> will return I<unknown> if
+alpha is lower than 0 or if it is higher than 100.

+
+=item Special values
+
+B<UNKN>
+
+Pushes an unknown value on the stack

+
+Pushes a positive or negative infinite value on the stack. When
+such a value is graphed, it appears at the top or bottom of the
+graph, no matter what the actual value on the y-axis is.
+
+B<PREV>
+
+Pushes an I<unknown> value if this is the first value of a data
+set or otherwise the result of this B<CDEF> at the previous time
+step. This allows you to do calculations across the data. This
+function cannot be used in B<VDEF> instructions.

+For B<VDEF> operations, B<TIME> and B<LTIME> have a different meaning
+I<not yet implemented>. As the B<VDEF> statement does not work per
+value but rather on a complete time series, there is no such thing as
+the currently processed value. However, if you have used an operator
+that returned a time component and would like to have this available
+in the value component in stead (so you can use it as a number), you
+can use B<TIME> or B<LTIME> for that.

+=item Processing the stack directly
+
+B<DUP, POP, EXC>
+
+Duplicate the top element, remove the top element, exchange the two
+top elements.
+
+Z<>
+
+=item Selecting characteristics
+
+These operators work only on B<VDEF> statements.
+I<We can make most of them work at DEF and CDEF statements. If we do
+so, we have a moving (not rolling!) average, max,min etcetera>
+
+Z<>
+
+=over 4
+
+=item MAXIMUM, MINIMUM, AVERAGE
+
+Return the corresponding value
+
+Z<>
+
+=item LAST, FIRST
+
+Return the last,first value including its time
+
+Z<>
+
+=item PERCENT
+
+Should follow a B<DEF> or B<CDEF> I<vname>. This I<vname> is popped,
+another number is popped which is a certain percentage (0..100). The
+data set is then sorted and the value returned is chosen such that
+I<percentage> percent of the values is lower or equal than the result.
+I<Unknown> values are considered lower than any finite number for this
+purpose so if this operator returns an I<unknown> you have quite a lot
+of them in your data. I<Inf>inite numbers are lesser, or more, than the
+finite numbers and are always more than the I<Unknown> numbers.
+
+Example: C<VDEF:perc95=mydata,95,PERCENT>
