I am trying to do some elementary data manipulation before plotting a curve, such as "divide all by 2". The documentation vaguely alludes to this in the form:
  plot '$file1' using 1:($17/2) w l t

However when I use this construct I get and "invalid expression" condition and the field "$17" appears to be empty (it is not).

The gnuplot doc I am referring to is: http://gnuplot.sourceforge.net/docs_4.2/node133.html

any ideas appreciated
thanks!
fritz
