I'm trying to produce a chart that has multiple lines which end at different x-values.  When I use normal lines, or even "steps", the lines with less data stop (this is exactly what I want).

When I plot with histeps, the lines with less data drop to zero after the final value.  Here is an example: https://img42.com/5VYEa.  I would have expected the red line to stop at the end of the maximum value like it does with "steps".

I noticed that even the published samples of how to use histeps exhibits the same behaviour: http://gnuplot.sourceforge.net/demo/steps.html

Is there a reason why histeps drops a line down to zero at the end even though "steps" does not?
