Announcing an incremental release Patchlevel 3 for gnuplot version 5.0
==========================================
Yes it has only been a month since the release of 5.0.2.
In a bit of poor timing, four terminals received significant bug-fixes
or upgrades just after that.
Patchlevel 3 (5.0.3) contains updates for four terminals
wxt - fixes for various font problems
qt - plots are toggled only on left-click (other events ignored)
aqua - upgrade to support version 5 dash types
tkcanvas - huge rewrite to the 1999 era driver now supports v5
Patchlevel 3 also contains a back-port of image bookkeeping from the
development version, which fixes bugs #1607 #1703 #1709
There is also a fix for clipping bug #1614
Patchlevel 3 also includes some changes to the Windows build files that
are only relevant if you are building Windows binaries from the source files.
Source files can be downloaded from SourceForge
https://sourceforge.net/projects/gnuplot/files/gnuplot/5.0.3/
As always, pre-built 5.0.3 binaries for Windows are contributed by
volunteers working from the released source and will appear when ready.
Note that the testing versions in the "5.0 release candidates" folder on
SourceForge _do not_ include the final round of fixes present in the
source files. Please be patient until the final 5.0.3 binaries can be
rebuilt and uploaded to the 5.0.3 distribution directory.
happy gnuplotting,
