Re: contour.m multiplot in Gnuplot 3.8 and 4.0

[Henry F. Mollet]

"automatic_replot = 0" did indeed take care of the label problem in my Fig1
with contour plots. However, in a different multiplot it does not seem to
work for a "plot a symbol" problem.

I'll try a very short description first. In my third subplot I have the
following statements:

gset label 13 "C) Mammals" at 0.1, 1.1

x=0.6;y=1.1;plot(x,y,"@34")
gset label 14 "Marine" at 0.63, 1.1

The plot command for @34 = blue open square forces "C) Mammals" to appear in
subplot 1. The same two statements also appear in subplots 2 and 4 but do
not "mess up" any other subplots.

automatic_replot = 0
elapsed_time = 12.831
cpu_time = 9.4026
