plot@vu-vlsi.UUCP (PLOT project administrators) (11/20/86)
We tried to make the Gnuplot posting perfect, but no such luck! We'll be glad to mail out the latest files if you send us a Self-Addressed Stamped Envelope with a formatted 360K PC floppy. Let us know what files you want: source code, help files, or executable for MS-DOS, VMS, Pyramid. Send a couple formatted floppies if you want them all! GNUPLOT Project EE Dept. Villanova University Villanova, PA 19085 There were a few typos in the help files, but nothing important enough to warrant a new posting yet... If compiling on a PC, please change MAX_UDFS from 30 to 20 in 'plot.h' (inside #ifdef PC). Three PC files--make.msc, corgraph.asm, and pcgraph.asm--had a couple lines of junk on the end of them, but fortunately, they'll work anyway (MASM ignores anything after an END statement; MAKE complains, but does its job anyway). Just delete the lines after the link statement in make.msc if you want to... Also, the 'help' program doesn't work under MS-DOS, but we've got the help files formatted into a single file which you can print out at least, to approximate documentation! If you want this, send a floppy per above, or a couple bucks to cover photocopying... Two VMS files--COMPILE.COM and LINK.COM--were missing. They follow this paragraph. BTW: make sure you SET TERM/NOWRAP before running GNUPLOT! $!

There is a small bug in the PC_puts routine in pcgraph.asm Before the INT 10h you must push BP and AX. The author must have been using a clone card which happes to save these registers. You will only notice this bug if you use a real CGA card. Good luck -- Michael A. Shiels UUCP: { clyde, decvax, ihnp4, tektronix, ubc-vutzoo }!watmath!watale!broehl
