Re: [Gnuplot-info] Why would gnuplot ignore my first data point in a file?

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

if you define

set key autotitles columnhead

the first data line is used for setting the title, so it's
not used for plotting.
you would have seen this if you would have let gnuplot
set the title automatically, instead you specified an explicit
title as option for the plot command.
