Hi,

Thanks for the extra detail. I was indeed missing the main intended use.

I tend to use this feature to dump out regression results from fit for 
external processing. I can use something like awk to filter out 'u' 
lines but it's just tiresome, not a major problem.

This again raises the question of what happens if a range or a using ($1 
< .....)  is intended  to avoid a singularity or some other region where 
the ordinate is ill-defined.

Couldn't this potentially create a div_zero exception or an overflow, 
that had been specifically excluded by the user, that would crash the 
plot command ?
