36 SET-SHOW gnuplot 4.0 75<br />
unset label<br />
To show all labels (in tag order), use:<br />
show label<br />
To set a label on a graph with a timeseries on the x axis, use, for example:<br />
set timefmt "%d/%m/%y,%H:%M"<br />
set label "Harvest" at "25/8/93",1<br />
To display a freshly fitted parameter on the plot with the data and the fitted function, do this after the<br />
fit, but before the plot:<br />
set label ’a = %3.5g’,par_a at 30, 15<br />
set label ’b = %s*10^%S’,par_b at 30, 20<br />
To set a label displaced a little bit from a small point:<br />
set label ’origin’ at 0,0 point lt 1 pt 2 ps 3 offset 1,-1<br />
To set a label whose color matches the z value (in this case 5.5) of some point on a 3D splot colored<br />
using pm3d:<br />
set label ’text’ at 0,0,5.5 tc palette z<br />
36.30 Lmargin<br />
The command set lmargin sets the size of the left margin. Please see set margin (p. 77) for details.<br />
36.31 Loadpath<br />
The loadpath setting defines additional locations for data and command files searched by the call,<br />
load, plot and splot commands. If a file cannot be found in the current directory, the directories in<br />
loadpath are tried.<br />
Syntax:<br />
set loadpath {"pathlist1" {"pathlist2"...}}<br />
show loadpath<br />
Path names may be entered as single directory names, or as a list of path names separated by a platformspecific<br />
path separator, eg. colon (’:’) on Unix, semicolon (’;’) on DOS/Windows/OS/2/Amiga platforms.<br />
The show loadpath, save and save set commands replace the platform-specific separator with<br />
a space character (’ ’) for maximum portability.<br />
If the environment variable GNUPLOT LIB is set, its contents are appended to loadpath. However,<br />
show loadpath prints the contents of user defined loadpath and system loadpath separately. Also, the<br />
save and save set commands save only the user specified parts of loadpath, for portability reasons.<br />
36.32 Locale<br />
The locale setting determines the language with which {x,y,z}{d,m}tics will write the days and<br />
months.<br />
Syntax:<br />
set locale {""}<br />
may be any language designation acceptable to your installation. See your system documentation<br />
for the available options. The default value is determined from the LANG environment variable.
