	You can edit this file in several places easily. For example, '<code>/gnulinewidth 5.000 def</code>' sets the line thicknesses, and '<code>50 50 translate</code>' '<code>0.050 0.050 scale</code>' set the location and scale of the plot. The default size seems to come out better without the '<code>eps</code>', i.e., 'set terminal postscript enhanced'. Try '<code>90 rotate</code>' down next to the translate commands to spin the graph 90 degrees.		You can edit this file in several places easily.

		+	==Calling GnuPlot from Perl==
		+	You can call gnuplot by using a short [[Perl]]-script like the following:
		+
		+	#!/usr/bin/perl -w
		+	open (GP, "\|/usr/local/bin/gnuplot -persist") or die "no gnuplot";
		+	# force buffer to flush after each write
		+	use FileHandle;
		+	GP->autoflush(1);
		+	print GP,"set term x11;plot '/tmp/data.dat' with lines\n";
		+	close GP
