Nick, That works from gnuplot. Not sure about orgmode... I tried
#+PLOT: using:"2:3:xticlabels(1)" which is not working. There's no "using" option mentioned on worg: http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-plot.php <http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-plot.php>Perhaps it's not possible? I could try the org-babel method but there seems to be less documentation on this?
