Show key headers only | View raw

   To reduce my problem down to something very simple, I have created the input file (called 'in' below):

set term x11 persist
set view 0,0
set pm3d
set palette
splot x**2+y**2

If I go into gnuplot and type 

load 'in'

everything works just fine.   If, on the other hand, I execute

gnuplot < in

everything works EXCEPT that the association of mouse position with plot coordinates is lost.    It simply displays x=0 and y=0 in the lower-left corner and has no response at all when I move the mouse.   However, if I change this to a one dimensional plot

set term x11 persist
plot x**2

then the mousing business works either way I invoke the file.    

Help!!!!   I am running gnuplot 4.6.0 on a MBP...
