[Gnuplot-info] epslatex: color and gplbacktext

[Richard H. <r.h...@rl...>]

Hi Folks,

I'm having a niggling little problem with epslatex term with gnuplot 4.1
patch 0 september 2006.


When I fail to include:
\usepackage{color}

in the preamble of the tex file which contains
\input{output_from_epslatex_term}

where output_from_epslatex_term.tex is generated using:
gnuplot> set term epslatex color solid blackline

I get the following complaint from Latex:

-------- latex complaint --------
! Package color not loaded in conjunction with terminal option `colourtext'.

See the gnuplot documentation for explanation.
Type  H <return>  for immediate help.
 ...

l.114     \gplbacktext
---------------------------------



when I do include:
\usepackage{color}
I get this complaint:
-------- latex complaint --------
! Too many }'s.
\color@endbox ->\color@endgroup \egroup

l.14 \end{figure}
---------------------------------



I get the feeling I'm missing something pretty simple in either Latex or
gnuplot. 

Any comments or advice are most welcome!

cheers,
Richard
