RE: Plotting Help

You cannot plot gif (that I am aware of) because of the Unisys stuff.  If
you uncomment the first two lines of my script (set terminal, set output), a
png file will be made.  If you do a <gnuplot> and then <help set terminal>,
you will see the output formats gnuplot supports.  If you want more, you'll
have to download source and start compiling.  It doesn't support jpg by
default, but if you want to play with perl, try grabbing ImageMagick and
it's perl module, and once installed, you can easily convert between graphic
file formats (even fits files).
