Dear All,

I am trying to plot vectors with different colours. The colour value is stored as a third column in the data file.

For example, let us say the datafile is "a.tx" contains

0.603358	2.022173	1
1.08929	        2.039982	2
1.588976	2.040512	3

The typical plot is 

plot 'a.txt' using 1:1:($2-$1):(0) notitle with vectors heads size screen 0.008,90 lc 2

The question is that How could the "lc" has the third column value?
