Re: [Gnuplot-info] Altering axes in polar plots

[Kevin O. <rko...@gm...>]

Thanks, Ethan. This looks lie just what I wanted.

I wrote code to move the points around as needed, but it's ugly and
confusing and I'd love to delete it. I'll give a shot as soon as the
FreeBSD port is updated. If I didn't have a work-around in place, I'd do
the port myself and may still do so if 5.1 does not show up soon.

Again, thanks for the information!
