gnuplot-beta

when did "set decimalsign" come in?

[Allin C. <cot...@wf...>]

Does anyone happen to know, with which gnuplot release did the "set 
decimalsign" option come in? That is, what's the earliest gnuplot 
version that supports this "set" variable?

Thanks.

CVS: 2002-02-13
official release: 4.0 patchlevel 0  (April 2004)

I have not kept copies of the 3.8 snapshots, but just going by
the dates it must have gone in before 3.8i.

 The ChangeLog places addition of the patch between 3.8i and 3.8j, so 3.8j
 was the first snapshot to support it. I think I may have copies of them
 in an archive at home somewhere :)

The patch was added into CVS on February 13, 2002, but I didn't check
which version of gnuplot included it first.
