Hi,

the release notes on 4.6.3 state

* FIX suppression of color in linetypes after "set term ... mono"

I don´t know what exactly was behind this, but the pdfcairo terminal
gives coloured lines if a lc is specified in the plot command

-----------
reset
set term push
set term pdfcair mono
set output "testmono.pdf"

plot x**2 lc 1

set output
set term pop
------------

gives a red line in the .pdf. That expected behaviour? (If the colour is
specified via "set linetype" it comes out in black allright.)

And what would you recommend to get different greyscale lines? Do it in
colour mode and specify grey RGBs ? I fear this might lead to problems
with bw printers?
