For example, when I type "set", the display shows as "et" and as a result gnuplot flags it as an unknown command! My keyboard is fine as I can type "s" outside of gnuplot, and I am able to type "S" but not "s" in the gnuplot window. Even a copy-paste does not work. [I copy the word "set" from another terminal and paste it on the gnuplot terminal, but the output shows as "et"] Interestingly, this problem occurs on Suse linux enterprise 10 machines, but not on the SLES 9 machines, which makes me think it is a problem of the libreadline version. Will try to provide more information as I try to debug this, but any thoughts on this are more than welcome. Thanks, Ramesh.
