Thomas,

Thanks so much for taking time to point out my really dumb error.
Unfortunately, it was a cut and paste/editing error and  was not in the
actual raw capture. All three plots were actually "with lines".

Since the full stream is rather long (almost 500 lines), I am not going to
include the whole thing in this message. Instead I have put it on my server
at/usr/local/www/data/FreeBSD/gnuplot.input.txt
<http://ykoberman.dlinkddns.com/FreeBSD/gnuplot.input.txt> along with one
of the output images at http://ykoberman.dlinkddns.com/FreeBSD/temp.gif
