my output is

42.0 27.8 29.8 43.0 42.0 43.0 
42.0 27.8 29.8 43.0 42.0 43.0

while true; do 
   sensors|egrep -o ' \+[0-9]{2}\.[0-9]+°C '|tr -d ' +°C'|tr -s '\n' ' ';
   echo; sleep 1; 
done|gnuplot -p -e '
  set xrange [0:60]; 
  set yrange [20:80]; 
  while (1) { 
    plot "-" using 1:2, "" using 1:3; pause 1; reread; 
  }'

just blocks. 
while true; do sensors|egrep -o ' \+[0-9]{2}\.[0-9]+°C '|tr -d ' +°C'|tr -
s '\n' ' '; echo; sleep 1; done|gnuplot -p -e 'plot "-" using 1:2, "" 
using 1:3'

So I tried
echo 20 40 60|gnuplot -p -e 'set xrange [0:60]; set yrange [20:80]; plot 
"-" using 1:2, "" using 1:3'
> line 1: warning: Skipping data file with no valid points

why is that?
