PS.  I don't want to give the impression I'm not happy with all this. It 
has a lot of really neat features which is why it would be good to get 
the wrinkles ironed out. It seems some of this has not had thorough , 
real use testing yet.

I hope these reports will identify some rough edges and corner cases 
that have been missed.

Apart from that it's bloody amazing at what I am able do with gnuplot . 
I'm producing some quite complex multiplot output of report quality that 
I can flick between a live wxt terminal and png file output at the flick 
of a variable (do_png=1).

gnuplot is also calling bash scripts that get the data from source, 
process, filter and FFT it .

The whole process in nearly down to one gnuplot load command now. I am 
impressed !
