Sorry I just sent the previous message and then got a partial solution to these problems. If you put the line literal cd "@workdir" (or whatever directory you prefer) as the first one in the plot environment, all the .tex files go this directory. Ir remains the question of how to run smoothly gnuplot on an input file without receiving errors (and only run). A possibility is to allow for shell commands and run !gnuplot gpttmp01.plt but this is not very smart. May I suggest a new option to gnuplot gretl command (and plot environment) --output=run? -- 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
