Well, I'm not sure what to say. Your example works, and this morning both my real script and my test script work too. They certainly didn't yesterday. I've quit and restart gnuplot since then, can't remember if I tried that before posting. I'll repost if I can recreate the problem. At any rate, thanks for looking into it.
