[Gnuplot-py-users] Preparing for 1.8

[<bm...@ca...>]

Hi,

I'm preparing for a 1.8 package.

I added the svg patch.
Furthermore, I need to do the patch in Feisty/Gutsy Ubuntu:

Index: _Gnuplot.py
===================================================================
--- _Gnuplot.py (revision 299)
+++ _Gnuplot.py (working copy)
@@ -574,8 +574,8 @@
                 % (string.join(keyw.keys(), ', '),)
                 )

+        self.set_string('output', filename)
         self(string.join(setterm))
-        self.set_string('output', filename)
         # replot the current figure (to the printer):
         self.refresh()

to prevent pictures being overwritten with the next hardcopy command. Anybody
sees that too (eg in new test.py I write a .svg file after ps, and this
overwrites the gp_test.ps file too with the svg file without above patch)?

As Michael said, we should try to keep the test suit working. I'll look into the
errors I get when time. These errors are present in 1.7 on my box too however.
Should somebody have time to look at them or have pointers, let me know. Or
should they not stop a 1.8?

Doing python test.py gives errors:

*  test hardcopy:

Testing hardcopy options: enhanced=1
Press return to show results...

gnuplot> set terminal postscript default enhanced
                                         ^
         line 714: extraneous argument in set terminal postscript

*   test GridData and compute_GridData:

gnuplot> splot "-" notitle

gnuplot> splot "/tmp/tmpcCCPct.gnuplot/fifo" binary notitle

         line 1903: File doesn't factorize into full matrix


Well, that's all for now folks.
