XMGRACE help

Dear all,

Im hoping you may be able to help with a little problem Im having using xmgrace.
I want to plot a dataset as a line curve e.g 1,2,3,4,5,6,15,16,17,18,19,20...

what i would like to do is not plot the missing bits of the sequence, i.e 1-6 would be a straight line then there would be a gap between 6 - 15 (NO line) followed by a line for 15-20... Xmgrace automatically joins the two bits up? is there away to stop it form doing this?

Mish

NAME
compare-histos - generate comparison histograms SYNOPSIS
compare-histos [options] aidafile1[:'PlotOption1=Value':'PlotOption2=Value'] [aidafile2 ...] OPTIONS
-h, --help show this help message and exit -R, --rivet-refs use Rivet reference data files (default) --no-rivet-refs don't use Rivet reference data files -o OUTDIR, --outdir=OUTDIR write data files into this directory --hier-out write output dat files into a directory hierarchy which matches the analysis paths --plotinfodir=PLOTINFODIR directory which may contain plot header information (in addition to standard Rivet search paths) --no-rmgapbins disable attempting to remove 'gap' bins from MC histos when they don't appear in the ref file --refid=REF_ID ID of reference data set (file path for non-REF data) --linear plot with linear scale --logarithmic plot with logarithmic scale (default behaviour) --mc-errs show vertical error bars on the MC lines --no-ratio disable the ratio plot --rel-ratio show the ratio plots scaled to the ref error --abs-ratio show the ratio plots with an absolute scale --no-plottitle don't show the plot title on the plot (useful when the plot description should only be given in a caption) --style=STYLE change plotting style: default|bw|talk -c CONFIGFILES, --config=CONFIGFILES additional plot config file(s). Settings will be included in the output configuration. --show-single=SHOW_SINGLE control if a plot file is made if there is only one dataset to be plotted [default=mc]. If the value is 'no', single plots are always skipped, for 'ref' and 'mc', the plot will be written only if the single plot is a reference plot or an MC plot respectively, and 'all' will always create single plot files. The 'ref' and 'all' values should be used with great care, as they will also write out plot files for all reference histograms without MC traces: combined with the -R /--rivet-refs flag, this is a great way to write out several thousand irrelevant reference data histograms! --show-mc-only, --all make a plot file even if there is only one dataset to be plotted and it is an MC one. Deprecated and will be removed: use --show-single instead, which overrides this. -m PATHPATTERNS, --match=PATHPATTERNS Only write out histograms whose $path/$name string matches these regexes. The argument may also be a text file. -M PATHUNPATTERNS, --unmatch=PATHUNPATTERNS Exclude histograms whose $path/$name string matches these regexes -q, --quiet Suppress normal messages -v, --verbose Add extra debug messages The plot options are described in the make-plots manual in the HISTOGRAM section.
