I've been trying to plot a boxxyerrorbars with variable color as the
extra column.

When I used the data file with 5 columns (x, y, x_delta, y_delta,
color) and the command:

plot "<file>"  using 1:2:3:4:5 with boxxyerrorbars linecolor rgbcolor
variable

I got "warning: Unrecognized 5 column plot style; resetting to
boxerrorbars" and it looks like gnuplot interpret the data as 6
columns format, with variable color = 0 (black) in all data points.

I tried to switch to 7 column data file (x, y, x_low, x_high, y_low,
y_high, color). This time, the command:

plot "<file>" using 1:2:3:4:5:6:7 with boxxyerrorbars linecolor
rgbcolor variable

does not give me any error. But still the colors were not read from
the data file. All data points are in black (rgb=0?)

Does anyone know what the problem is?
