I am aware of matrix flag. May be I am misinterpreting it.
In my above example, the values of A need not be equispaced. For example A
can have
A = [-1, -0.9, 0, 0.9, 1]
Similarly, B can be [-2, -1.7, 0.3, 1.5, 2]
The grid will be determined by the entries of A, B. In gnuplot, for 'matrix'
type data the x, and y values are defined by the row, column numbers. I
want it to be much more flexible.
'binary' flag seems to be what I am looking for. But it works only with the
binary data. I want the same functionality but something which works with
ascii data.
