[Gnuplot-bugs] suggestions

[Santaji N. K. <sn...@gm...>]

Dear Sir,

 	I am using

         G N U P L O T
         Version 4.0 patchlevel 0
         last modified Thu Apr 15 14:44:22 CEST 2004
         System: Linux 2.6.12-1.1372_FC3

my problem is as follows

if I use

>gnuplot


gnuplot>plot sin(x)

then I am getting the plot and I can see the
co-ordinates in the plot by clicking the middle
mouse button.

But if I use

> cat | gnuplot
plot sin(x)

then it is plotting but I can not see the
co-ordinates in the plot by clicking the middle
mouse button. i.e. the plot does not work interactively.

Please expalin this , I want to plot my data by passing it to gnuplot
by opening the pipe. I am getting the plot but I can not
change the scale of the plot by mouse click but it works without
pipe.


Thanks,
Santaji.
