[Gnuplot-info] Call help with export script in Gnuplot 5.0

[dbrant <bra...@ho...>]

Hi Gnuplotters

For years i have used the following script taken from the Gnuplot In Action
book to generate my graphs:

save "$0.gp"	# Save commands to file
set t push		# Save commands to file
set t png $1	# Store current terminal settings
			# options from second argument
set o "$0.png"	# Set output file name
replot		# Generate plot
set o			# Restore output to interactive terminal
set t pop		# Restore interactive terminal settings

This could be invoked as:

call 'export.gp' 'myplot' 'size 160,100' 

With the advent of Gnuplot 5.0 this no longer works due to changes in
argument references from tokens $0 ... etc to string variables.

Unfortunately i cannot get my head around it by way of examples i have seen. 

Could anyone please  re-work the script to take recent developments into
account that i may understand use.

Regards, Dave
