[Gnuplot-info] Bad option error

[DONALDO <sco...@yo...>]

Hi all

Iv installed sargraph and gnuplot 4.4 on an P5 aix box. The SAR bineries are
being generated but when i run 

 ./sargraph.ksh /var/adm/sa/sar.bin.20100916 -p output.png

i get the error 

Creating plot in file output.png...
gnuplot: bad option: /tmp/sargraph.ksh.610438.cmd
gnuplot: X11 aborted.

nothing is created in /tmp
iv checked all configs anf they look fine, am i missing something here.
apologies if this is noobish, but i cant find anything in this forum for
this error.

thanks

You'll have to remove sargraph from the picture before this can be 
treated as a gnuplot problem.  That means you have to find out the exact 
command sequence set up by sargraph, and check it directly in gnuplot 
yourself.  As is, gnuplot's error messages appear to go straight to 
/dev/null.

It could be something simple, like the PNG driver missing from your 
gnuplot executable.
