Use gnuplot within latex
|
|
|
|
========================

|
|
|
* First make sure that you can use gnuplot:
|
|
|
|
* Execute `gnuplot` in your command line
|

|
|
|
* Doesn't work:
|
|
|
|
* Look up where the binary is located (e.g. `C:\Programs\gnuplot\bin\gnuplot.exe`)
|
|
|
|
* Add the binary directory to your path (Windows + Pause -> System variables -> Path)
|
|
|
|
* Try executing `gnuplot` in terminal again
|

|
|
|
* It is a good idea to separate gnuplot-code from LaTeX-code! (see plot.gnuplot)
|
|
|
|
* `-shell-escape` or `enable-write18` is NOT needed for this solution!
|
|
|
|
* You have to create the plot-tmp.tex file first. Use `gnuplot plot.gnuplot` to do so.
