[Gnuplot-info] a way to force plot to connect?

[Jon <dev...@gm...>]

Dear All,

I know plot by default will not connect two points if they are separated by
a blank line. But data from a specific output from a software has data
readily isolated into different blocks separated by a line, for example

  0.0000000E+00  0.0000000E+00  0.0000000E+00  0.1562500E-01
   1      -23.821478
   2       -4.218649
   3       -4.218649
   4       -4.218621
   5        8.602143
   6       10.708182

  0.2500000E-01  0.0000000E+00  0.0000000E+00  0.0000000E+00
   1      -23.816546
   2       -4.251996
   3       -4.222201
   4       -4.222177
   5        8.639374
   6       10.692756

  0.5000000E-01  0.0000000E+00  0.0000000E+00  0.0000000E+00
   1      -23.801388
   2       -4.349303
   3       -4.232706
   4       -4.232682
   5        8.747586
   6       10.649874

...

Thus, if I issue the following command,

p [] [] \
  VASP u 2 ev 18::1 w  lp, \
  VASP u 2 ev 18::2 w  lp, \
  VASP u 2 ev 18::3 w  lp, \
  VASP u 2 ev 18::4 w  lp, \
  VASP u 2 ev 18::5 w  lp

then plotted points are broken although I issued w lp option. I wonder
whether there is a way to force connecting nearby points even they are
separated by blanks.

Thanks,

Sincerely,
John
