I looked at your examples in the wiki. The "slow easy way" works OK. But in the "fast easy way" I only obtain the .plt file. I miss a way to run gnuplot from inside gretl and put the .tex files in the correct place. My script is <hansl> open AWM --quiet series tbal = XTN - MTN list X = XTN MTN tbal plot X literal set terminal lua tikz createstyle literal set output "tradebal.tex" option with-boxes=tbal literal set key below options time-series with-lines end plot </hansl> But this only creates a file 'gpttmp01.plt' in my working directory. I tried several ways of running gnuplot to create the .tex files in the correct place, but I had no much success. The best of them is just to add --output=display in the last line 'end plot --output=display' but, of course, this gives an error in the screen "El archivo de imagen «/home/ignacio/.gretl/gretltmp.png» no contiene datos" because gretltmp.png is not created and the .tex files are not placed in my workdir, but in my home directory. -- Ignacio Díaz-Emparanza Departamento de Economía Aplicada III (Econometría y Estadística) Universidad del País Vasco - Euskalherriko Unibertsitatea, UPV/EHU Tfno: (+34) 94 601 3732 http://www.ehu.eus/ea3
