Re: [Gnuplot-info] missing data = empty string ?

[Theo <th...@gm...>]

Hi Ethan,

if you take the following simple datafile 'Data.dat'

0	2.0	3.0	4.0
1	2.1	3.1	4.1
2		3.2	4.2
3	2.3		4.3
4	2.4		4.4
5	2.5	3.5	4.5
6	2.6	3.6	
7	2.7	3.7	
8	2.8	3.8	4.8
9	2.9	3.9	4.9

set datafile separator '\t'
plot 'Data.dat' u 1:($2) with lines, '' u 1:($3) with lines, '' u 1:($4) 
with lines

You should get three parallel lines where all lines should be 
interrupted. As you can see in the plot (I try to attach the plot), they 
are not.
I am using gnuplot 4.6.3
A version 4.6.4 or 4.7 windows executable is not (yet) available on 
sourceforge. So, alternatively, I would have to figure out how I can 
compile 4.6.4 or 4.7 on my computer. Haven't done it before. This might 
take a while.
Theo.
