This is done now. So in the future the answer to this FAQ should
simply be
Current versions of Octave have a print function that is mostly
compatible with the print function in Matlab. So you should be able
to do something like
* prepare a plot on the screen
* use a command like
print foo.eps -depsc
to print the current figure.
I also included the orient function, but I avoided using gget, so the
version of print in Octave always returns the output to the default
(i.e., the screen). The terminal type is managed with the new
push/pop form of gnuplot's set terminal command:
set terminal push
set terminal TERM OPTIONS
...
set terminal pop
so the print function in Octave requires gnuplot 4.0 or later. It
would be nice if you could do the same with the output setting. Or
perhaps *any* gnuplot setting, perhaps by allowing "push" as a synonym
for "set", with the added feature of pushing the old setting on a
stack, "pop" as a way to restore the previously pushed setting. I.e.,
you could then write
push terminal TERM OPTIONS
...
pop terminal
instead of what is currently required, and the same kind of thing
would work for
push output "foo.eps"
pop output
