Re: [Gnuplot-py-users] is it possible to continue to Debug when figure is created??

Sandy,

Like Michael said, You can turn off fifo data transfer and use inline with
these lines:

Gnuplot.GnuplotOpts.prefer_inline_data = 1
Gnuplot.GnuplotOpts.prefer_fifo_data = 0

I do this in Liveplots[1] and found that inlining data improved the
performance enormously. Besides, since I use Python's multiprocessing module
to plot data from children processes, FIFO did not work for me.
