No major difference. But it would (should, at least) be compatible with all the three: LaTeX/plain/ConTeXt. > Does > it mean I would not end up with so many *-gnuplot-* files? :) When I have developed the terminal with enormous Hans's and Taco's help, I have asked him to implement some functionality to delete the files with ctxtools --purge. He has implemented some functionality (\registertempfile or something - need to check), but it deletes the files automatically at the end of run, so one either needs to: - delete the files - leave the files - no option to delete files with ctxtools The problem with deleting the files immediately is that if you make a trivial mistake in the gnuplot script, gnuplot won't create any output, and it's rather difficult to spot the error in the long bunch of ConTeXt messages. You just get no graphic, any you wonder why. Do you have any suggestions about how to reduce the number of files in some sensible way?
