Hi All, Thanks in advance. Yesterday I downloaded and compiled the CVS version of GNUPLOT. I had to apt-get Lua, and follow the instructions here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1127979 to get the configure script to pick it up. Compilation seems to go fine, but when I try to set the terminal: gnuplot> set term lua Terminal type set to 'lua' No Lua driver name or file name given! I checked the config.log, and there's a bunch of nonsense about not finding lua.h. I'm not sure why, since pkg-config --cflags "lua" -I/usr/include/lua5.1 Anyhow, the -I flag shows up fine in CPPFLAGS in the Makefile, but I don't know if it's being picked up or not by GCC. Could anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks, Tim. |

"lua" is the name of a generic driver that can in theory create several different output formats. The only one implemented at this point is tikz, but the intent is that in the future there could be others. To create tikz output, you can either say set term lua tikz or just set term tikz This is similar to how the current gd terminal driver works. It can be used to create gif, png, or jpeg output. But you don't say "set term gd", you say "set term png" and so on. |

Works like a charm. Thanks! Best regards, Tim.
