[Gnuplot-py-users] Windows and inline

[Noel O'B. <noe...@ma...>]

Dear all,

In order to avoid the use of temporary files, I have tried to pass data
to gnuplot using the inline option in WinXP. This works fine for small
amounts of data but for larger amounts, the complete amount of data is
not passed.

For example, I tried to send data for 500 hundred (x,y) data points, but
only 355 lines were sent to gnuplot. It was possible to see this at the
interactive gnuplot prompt, and actually to plot the 355 data points by
entering 'e' (for "end" - part of gnuplot's inline data passing
mechanism, I suppose).

Is this a known feature of Windows/gnuplot-py/gnuplot? I wasn't sure how
to track down this bug - I can send you an example program that
reproduces this problem if you want.

Regards,
Noel
