Re: gnuplot/eps/mono

I should have read the archives; this has already been addressed.

There's been some discussion on the list about gnuplot generating color eps/epslatex plots when mono is requested.  I used the -debug option in the print script and found that if I removed the text 

linecolor rgb "#0000ff"

from the second set style line command then I get a black-and-white plot, whereas the rgb command seems to set gnuplot back to color plotting if it's left t here.

I can't say whether that's a bug in gnuplot or not.    If routine __go_draw_axes__.m it can be informed of the "mono" option so that it can omit the linecolor command, that should fix at least this part of the problem.

octave code:

 xx = linspace(0,5,5);

octave:23> yy = sin(xx);

octave:24> plot(xx,yy);

octave:25> print -deps -mono jnk.eps -debug
