The current CVS version still supports GIF, so you must be more specific to which version you updated, where you got the update from, on which platform etc. > Can I have a coloured canvas with postsctipt enh eps, or what > terminal type is there that will allow me this, and how do I specify > the colour?

In the CVS version there is a terminal option 'background': set terminal postscript enh eps background rgb "#010101" For other terminals or gnuplot versions you can use e.g. (all on one line, don't know if there is a shorter version of this): set object rectangle back from screen 0, screen 0 to screen 0.5, screen 1 fc rgb "#550000" fillstyle solid 1.0 noborder Christoph
