| Well, the __gnuplot_raw__ is something I wish would be retained. (I | thought it actually was meant to be some generic originally, like | "__graphics_raw__".) It allows accessing features and terminal | settings that Octave may not have reason to implement, e.g., | building animations using a series of plots. Its a helpful routine. If you are using __gnuplot_raw__ only, then you might as well be using plot_stream = popen ("gnuplot", "w"); fprintf (plot_stream, ...); ... pclose (plot_stream);
Not just __gnuplot_raw__. It's nice to have the flexibility to tweak a plot by issuing that command just before a plot() command, by setting some parameter that normal handle graphics may not access. I think there are a few things gnuplot can offer that normal handle graphics can't. Compatibility is nice, but so is the ability to go beyond that. I'll see how CVS is set up. Dan
