Re: gnuplot on windows crashes in non-interactive mode

[Tatsuro M. <tma...@ya...>]

Hello

I have carried out the same test using binaries by Kakuto.
http://www.ring.gr.jp/pub/text/TeX/ptex-win32/w32/
gnuplot-45pl0w32.zip

(Note that the binaries do not support the pngcairo, pdfcairo and wxt terminals.)

In this case, such error did not occur.

Perhaps this issue comes from the gnuplot itself but from my new build system for gnuplot-4.4.2 and
4.5.  

This is perhaps not a bug of the gnuplot itself so that please do not register to the bug-tracker.

Sorry for my confusing the matter.

Regards

Tatsuro
