[Gnuplot-bugs] tiny bug when using set xdata time

[Javier G. <j.a...@gm...>]

Hi,

I have found out that when creating a plot with time format in the x-axis,
using comands

set timefmt "%s"
set xdata time

there is a difference in the use of the column specifier.

There is no problem by using the full form.

plot "timedata1" using ($1):($2), "timedata2" using ($1):($3) axes x1y2

works perfectly,

however when using as

plot "timedata1" using 1:2, "timedata2" using 1:3 axes x1y2

the time data is not properly interpreted.

I noticed that when the timedata1 and timedata2 files are the same then
there is no problem at all,

cheers,
  Javier
