I have compiled the 5.2.2 Version and it confuse me.

set style data linespoints
set datafile missing NaN
plot '-' u 1:2
input data ('e' ends) > 1 10
input data ('e' ends) > 2 20
input data ('e' ends) > 3 NaN
input data ('e' ends) > 4 40
input data ('e' ends) > 5 50
input data ('e' ends) > e

There is no gap in the output.

unset datafile missing NaN
plot '-' u 1:2
input data ('e' ends) > 1 10
input data ('e' ends) > 2 20
input data ('e' ends) > 3 NaN
input data ('e' ends) > 4 40
input data ('e' ends) > 5 50
input data ('e' ends) > e

There is a gap between 2 - 4 in the output.

In the 5.2 Documentation there are some examples for the "set datafile
missing option". Only the examples with "NaN" direct in the data gives a
gap.

So can you put a "NaN" into your data?

IMHO the 5.0 Version works nicer, or more than I expected. Or is it a bug?
