Hi all,

I've only just started with gnuplot (win32, v4.4) so please bear with
me. I think I'm missing something very simple. Running the following:

set term epslatex
set output "graph.tex"
plot ......

I get a blank graph. The axes and grid are there but text and curves
are missing. If I set the term to something else then it works fine.
I've tried different options but no joy. I took examples from many
tutorials with epslatex and none of them produce anything other than
the axes.

What's strange is that after issuing the "plot" command, the tex and
eps files are only partially filled with data but still kept open for
writing by gnuplot.exe (e.g. you can't delete the .tex file).

Also, if after issuing the "plot" command, I change the output to a
different file by issuing set output "other.tex", then the initial
graph.tex file is then written to and closed and I can see the curve
in the eps file, but none of the other bits (labels, title, etc).

I'm stumped and I couldn't find a solution on the net, which kind of
feels I'm missing something trivial.

Anyone?

Cheers
