Plotting in 2.1.50

[Dr. Michael Martins]

Dear octave users,

I have a problem with plotting in 2.1.50 (Linux Suse8.2, P4).
When submitting the command:

z=[0:10]; plot(z,"-",z*10,"-",z.*z,"-");

in the frist run only one plot is shown. Repeating this command result in
the gnuplot error message

gnuplot> ep '/tmp/oct-oQduIk' t "line 3" w lines
         ^
         line 0: invalid command

and only the first (z) and the second curves (z*10) are plotted. This
error occures also for some other "set" commands for gnuplot. It seems to
be, that there are the first and sometimes also the second letter of then
"set" command is missing. Any ideas ?

Best regards
        Michael
