    gnuplot copy/paste doesn't work

    I am using gnuplot 4.4.3 on ubuntu 12.04 lts. Everything works except for the copy and paste feature. Does anyone know how I can save my plot into an image file that I can then insert into a word document?
    Thanks

    Re: gnuplot copy/paste doesn't work

    You can plot directly to a PNG/EPS/whatever file by setting the 'term' (or 'terminal') value e.g.

    Code:
    gnuplot> set term png
    gnuplot> set output 'data1.png'
    gnuplot> plot 'data1.dat' with linespoints
    For a complete list of available terminal types available on your system, use 'set term' without arguments

    Code:
    gnuplot> set term
