[Gnuplot-info] how to change sequence in the key?

[Jon <dev...@gm...>]

Dear All,

I specify titles in the plot command, and let them be displayed in the key
box. But I would like to change the sequence of the titles in the key box,
say, the title to the second plot be shown as the first in the key box. I
looked through set key but don't find the relevant options, thus come over
to ask whether this is possible.

Thanks,

Sincerely,
Jon

Hmmm.... and how would the result differ from that you can get just 
changing the sequence of datasets inside the 'plot' command?

Just liked the color sequence and lazy to add more words to specify color
when changing the plotting sequence.

The concerns is not just that, I suppose the ability to specific sequence in
the key should be included in 'plot' command ...

And how else, if not by "adding more words" do you think you would be 
going to specify that non-default key sequence, then?

And you really haven't given any good reason why.
