[Gnuplot-info] table output

[Wolf-Rainer N. <nov...@on...>]

Hola,

I need >>also<< tabular output of my data reading from external files.
The command

set term table

yields in a very poor output, each variable separately.
How can I get a rectangular table suitable for printing in the form


x1   y11  y12  y13 ..
x2   y21  y22  y23 ..
x3   y31  y32  y33 ..
..  .................


???

Thanks in advance.

By the way: I use GNUPLOT in many ways and use it with my students.

Why do you emphasise "also"?

You can't, short of modifying the source code.  That's simply not what 
'table' is meant to do, in its existing implementation.  "table" outputs 
data ready to be read back into gnuplot.  No more, no less.
