Further detailed digging shows that this is most likely a backward compatibility issue with gnuplot 4.0. Look at http://www.gnuplot.info/docs/node32.html and http://www.gnuplot.info/docs/node31.html#set_term_size It seems that it is related to the ./configure command mentioned there. I don't quite understand their notation of the form set term 5#5terminal_type6#6 size 5#5XX6#6, 5#5YY6#6 when their example shows set term pbm size 600, 400 but that is a notation issue. In any case, it might be nice if the current RPM for gnuplot was moved to the 4.2 release to address this and offered with/without the ./configure --disable-backwards-compatibility configuration modes. varekova, Any thoughts on this. I'm kind of stuck here and can't proceed till I get gnuplot working. If I need to build it myself I need to know. Please advise, Alan D.
