Re: [Gnuplot-info] fence plotting in gnuplot

[Tait <gnu...@t4...>]

It's probably not reasonable to ask gnuplot to draw 1.5 million tic
marks (the using with xtic(1)). So don't do that. Instead, only draw
every 150000th xtic or so, using every. Something like:

plot 'set1st01.txt' using 1, '' using 2, '' using 3, '' using 4, '' using 5, '' using (0):xtic(1) every 150000 notitle

The last plot item just plots the constant value 0, and creates a tic
mark, every 10000th row. See "help every" for the complete syntax.

As for a built-in way to do fence plots, there is only the link I gave
originally, using parametric mode.
