The 4.6 release candidate gnuplot-4.6.rc1 is now available on SourceForge.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/gnuplot/files/gnuplot/4.6.rc1/
There you can find a longer announcement, a source tarball, and a set
of binaries for testing on Windows.
The intent of this release candidate is to allow testers to report any
packaging or configuration errors early so that the errors can be
corrected before the final release, planned for March.
In terms of features, 4.6.rc1 is essentially a snapshot of the current
development branch. The version of the development branch itself will
now (well, soon anyway) be bumped to 4.7.
A reminder of some notable new features in version 4.6
======================================================
- New syntax supporting multi-line blocks of code delimited by curly braces
if (<cond>) { ... } else { ... }
do for [<iteration-spec>] { ... }
while (<cond>) { ... }
- Time formats can handle fractional seconds to microsecond precision.
- User-definable linetypes, which can be used to establish a locally
preferred default sequence of colors or dash/thickness/point styles.
- Statistical summary of the data to be plotted (new command "stats")
- New terminal (output) drivers: qt context epscairo cairolatex
- Improved support for UTF-8, SJIS and other multi-byte encodings
