Thanks, that solves the problem.  I wrote this code originally about 
five years ago, so it was probably obsolete syntax then.  These 
particular circle statements were copied from some online examples that 
I found at that time.  I was not, and still am not, fluent enough with 
gnuplot to track these things down. I probably have done the "help plot 
style" query in the past couple of days while trying to fix this, but I 
did not notice the missing the "lt".
