Re: [Gnuplot-info] 回?: 回?: 回?: system command in gnuplot

[Andrew R. <an...@gm...>]

Without testing (I might have time later), there are two things that look
like they need to be fixed:

1. in order for "./myscript.sh" not to have the 'Permission denied' error,
it needs to be executable. You can do this on the command line with>
chmod +x myscript.sh

2. When a bash script takes command line arguments, they have the names $1,
$2, etc. So, you might have to change $k to $1.
