[Gnuplot-py-users] Gnuplot-py on Windows XP

[Edoardo P. <e....@nk...>]

Dear users,

I'd like to use gnuplot-py on windowsxp. I have python 2.6. Apparently I 
managed to take the setup.py install to the end. As a matter of facts
import Gnuplot doesn't return errors.

Anyway when I try the demo.py I get this:

gnuplot> set terminal windows
gnuplot> set title "A simple example"
gnuplot> set data style linespoints
gnuplot> plot 
"c:\\docume~1\\ef634~1.pas\\locals~1\\temp\\tmpm5ee2g.gnuplot" notitle
Please press return to continue...

Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "C:\Program Files\Paive-1.0\Lib\site-packages\Gnuplot\demo.py", 
line 110, in <module>
     demo()
   File "C:\Program Files\Paive-1.0\Lib\site-packages\Gnuplot\demo.py", 
line 36, in demo
     g.reset()
   File "C:\Program 
Files\Paive-1.0\lib\site-packages\Gnuplot\_Gnuplot.py", line 366, in reset
     self('reset')
   File "C:\Program 
Files\Paive-1.0\lib\site-packages\Gnuplot\_Gnuplot.py", line 210, in 
__call__
     self.gnuplot(s)
   File "C:\Program 
Files\Paive-1.0\lib\site-packages\Gnuplot\gp_win32.py", line 130, in 
__call__
     self.write(s + '\n')
IOError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument


I have tried to check the proper file names in the gp_win32.py and 
updated to the location of pgnuplot.exe but there was no apparent 
difference: it always failed. I presume that the error is indicating 
something different but I cannot figure out what.

I gave a look at the mailing list archives before writing this email.

Thanks

Edoardo
