Bug? show palette palette does now write to file

[Philipp K. J. <ja...@ie...>]

According to the documentation, I can
export a palette to file, but this does not
seem to work:

set palette defined ( 0 'red', 1 'yellow' )
set output "foo"
show palette palette 3

creates an empty file "foo", but prints the
palette values only to the screen.

Version info below.

Best,

		Ph.
