Sorry I didn't respond earlier. I was on vacation.
I am not familiar with the commands that you mentioned. On what gnuplot
version and platform are they? Are they specific to a particular
terminal type?
If this feature causes gnuplot.py to read the input file twice, that
would indeed be a problem when working with FIFOs. Normally, as soon as
the FIFO has been read once by gnuplot, it is deleted. It would be
possible to keep the FIFO around for possible repeated reads, but this
would defeat the purpose of the FIFO (which was to enable Gnuplot.py to
know when it is safe to discard old data).
As for a workaround, you can go back to using temporary files as a
default by going to the gp_*.py file specific to your platform (e.g.,
gp_unix.py or gp_macosx.py) and changing the option "prefer_fifo_data" to 0.
