instead of this, I've been using the following macro file for about two years:set terminal dumb set output '/dev/null'
#!/usr/bin/gnuplot set terminal unknown ... (gnuplot commands, including all the plots) ... set output 'file.eps' set terminal postscript eps replot
#eof
It works just fine.
Best regards, Luiz.
