[Gnuplot-info] gnuplot movies

[Eric <gn...@er...>]

I am very new to gnuplot so I don't know the proper terminology for what I 
want to do, but I'm trying to show a movie of my data. We've generated a data 
file of positions of particles on a grid. On the mac computer at the lab I use 
the command

gnuplot data.ini data.mvi

this takes our data and shows a constantly updating plot that shows our 
particles moving - it seems to work like a flip book. I have no problem 
getting it to work on the mac. The computer at my office is a windows 
computer. I have gnuplot installed on it. When I give the same command as 
above on my windows computer, the movie starts, but then I have to hit a key 
to advance to the next frame. I can't get it to show them as a continuous 
movie. I am using the same data files and .ini and .mvi files that I use on 
the mac. Is there a different command I have to use in windows/DOS to get the 
movie to run continuously.

My data.ini file contains:
iteration_count=0
limit_iterations=12341

my data.mvi file contains
if (iteration_count>limit_iterations) exit
plot[0:112][0:112] 'fort.20' index iteration_count
iteration_count=iteration_count+1
reread

where fort.20 is the data file I want to see the movie of.

Thanks for any help - Eric
