Were you expecting an error exit status? Why? I would not have expected an error exit from your original test run on gnuplot version 4.0 either. Failing to find a terminal is not a fatal error. It just returns you to the gnuplot command prompt. So when would you ever see an error exit? -- Ethan A Merritt |
