Hi,
looking at the chapter "6 Graphs and plots", it seems to me that the
sub-section "Publication-quality graphics: advanced options" (within
6.1) is quite outdated. It talks of sizes and terminals and so on
which you haven't really had to touch at least for a couple of years.
For PDF output we have another GUI controller which does all that, and
hand-picking gnuplot terminals is not recommended, I believe.
Just adding another screenshot of the PDF controller window would be
enough to replace that sub-section, I think.
As a cosmetic aside, the picture 6.1 could be updated, the window
decorations look 20 years old. (That's probably true for other
screenshots as well, though...)
In fact, there's been some discussion about having a separate document
for describing everything related to graphs and plots, since there's so
much that has been going on in that department in the past 2-3 years,
and still isn't documented adequately.
I recall our discussion. Perhaps we don't need to create another PDF,
but instead, reference the wiki in the User's Guide, which will be
populated with various examples.
This wiki could function as a collaborative space where the barrier to
adding an entry is minimal.
