Branch: CURRENT, Version: 6.0.5nb1, Package name: gnuplot-6.0.5nb1, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

Gnuplot is a command-line driven interactive function plotting utility
for UNIX, MSDOS, and VMS platforms. The software is copyrighted but
freely distributed (i.e., you don't have to pay for it). It was originally
intended as graphical program which would allow scientists and students
to visualize mathematical functions and data. Gnuplot supports many
different types of terminals, plotters, and printers (including many
color devices, and pseudo-devices like LaTeX) and is easily extensible
to include new devices.

This package includes X11 support.

gnuplot: updated to 6.0.5

6.0.5

New features

Full mousing support for multiplots
all panels report mouse coordinates
all panels respond to pan/zoom/rotate mouse movement and hotkeys
"replot" reexecutes multiplot commands starting from current state
"remultiplot" restores the original state before reexecuting multiplot
interactive mousing remains active after ^C or "reset"
Unicode escape sequences \U+xxxx are accepted in more contexts
escape sequences are expanded in "noenhanced" strings
escape sequences are expanded during substring evaluation
escape sequences are expanded in string functions strstrt() and strlen()
New built-in function prod [<var> = <start> : <end>] \ 
<expression>
implements the sequential product operation
prod [i=a:b] f(i) = f(a) * f(a+1) * ... * f(b)

Data files in EUC-JP encoding can be processed from other environments
If running in a EUC-JP locale, use "set encoding locale"
If running in a different locale, use "set encoding eucjp"
In either case, this affects only input data. It does not change the encoding \ 
(usually UTF-8) written to plots on output.
New coloring option for contourfill
Arbitrary discrete color ranges can be define without using a special palette
set contourfill defined [zmin1:zmax1] color1, [zmin2:zmax2] color2, ...

Allow "string"[i] as shorthand for "string"[i:i]
