[Gnuplot-info] gnuplot histogram xtic(1)

[janjust <tja...@un...>]

Hello everyone,
    I'm trying to generate a rowstacked histogram for various data points
My data snippet looks like this:

  1 #Gnuplot data
  2 Range Global Heap Stack Unidentified Total
  3 9999 4258 0 5740 0 10000
  4 19999 3236 0 6764 0 10000
  5 29999 3356 0 6644 0 10000
  6 39999 3261 0 6739 0 10000
  7 49999 3291 0 6709 0 10000
  8 59999 3148 0 6852 0 10000
  9 69999 3292 0 6708 0 10000

and my script is attached, but the key line is below:
30 i = 5
31 plot 'mydata.dat' using (100.*$2/$6):xtic(1) t column(2), \
32         for [i=3:5] 'mydata_mibench_jpeg.dat' using
(100.*column(i)/column(6)) title column(i)

The problem I'm getting is that I don't want every xtic to be printed. I
have thousands of lines and ideally I want to print only every X^{th} line.

I found this 
https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/comp.graphics.apps.gnuplot/M_ldKLSFXwg
page  , but when i try to use something similar I get an error.

So to recap: I would like to print column 1 as my xtic but I want to print
only every X^{th} xtic. 

Does anybody know how to achieve this?
Regards,
    Tommy
