Yes, the "last modified date" was changed only a few days ago. But the reason I said the wgnuplot executable was older than August 2007 was not because of the "last modified" date. I said it was older because the command plot x; refresh reported gnuplot> refresh ^ invalid command This means that the executable was built from a source tree that did not contain my patch to add support for volatile data and mousing of piped data. I have now downloaded the binary at http://www.ring.gr.jp/pub/text/TeX/ptex-win32/utils/ This one does _not_ work for me under wine+linux. After the first plot, it locks up and fails to read any input from the keyboard. > As you said in your reply, it was no problem for linux+wine, there may be something windows specific > problem. > > Hi, Hans!! > I think you are the main develpper for the wgnuplot. > Are there any suggestions to me? I would suggest to test first the gnuplot end by itself. You can test the support for mousing volatile data by typing # Plot data from input stream plot '-' with lines 1 1 2 3 3 2 4 4 5 2 e refresh # Test mousing operations here refresh If this works, then I think the problem must be either something wrong on the Octave end of the pipe, something wrong with the pipe itself, or perhaps there is an error in handling piped binary data (hard to test from the keyboard).
