Re: [Gnuplot-info] Managing multiple plot windows

[Jefferson S. E. P. <st...@gm...>]

I apologize. My 'quick reaction' was too quick.

You're right, I have been using a lot o Octave (MATLAB-like) lately and,
although it's not completely unrelated to gnuplot, my suggestion works only
in octave/matlab, not gnuplot. Sorry for that.

In order to partially make up for my bad, I can solve your first problem:
just issue a
> reset
after changing to the new terminal to set most things to their default.

But I don't find a satisfying way of achieving the separate objects you
really want. Maybe you'd have to go for something like macros - but I'll
let competent people advice you on that. :-)

Best,
Jefferson
