You are asking an embarrassing question... I have, at work, Open Suse 10.2.
I know I should upgrade but it would mean re-installing some programs,
such as Fortran, etc, and as long as it's working, I am not keen on that.
I did upgrade gnuplot a while ago but it doesn't let me use gif or png,
hence this awkward way of doing it. The particular application here is
something that doesn't change very often (cold fusion is not very active
these days and there are only a few papers per year, none in 2011), so I
can put up with the manual operations.
