Gnuplot¶
Gnuplot can run as a command within Slurm such as srun gnuplot [input files...] or sbatch gnuplot.sbatch
or within an sinteractive session
To work with a command line only interface, the output must be redirected.
See the included file surface1.1.gnu
as an example.
# Format the output to plot the output as a png
set terminal pngcairo transparent enhanced font "arial,10" fontscale 1.0 size 500, 350
# Redirect the output to a named file
set output 'surface1.1.png'
