Re: [Gnuplot-info] Angstroms symbol in Gnuplot

[Thomas S. <t.s...@fz...>]

page 2 tells you a little bit more:
> (the "E" character set is accessed via an option on "set encoding")
and 'latin-1' is also called 'iso_8859_1'

page 1 tells you:
'/' is used for setting fonts
'\' is used for octal codes

the commands you need are:

set encoding iso_8859_1
set xlabel "Wavelength (\305)"
