Gnuplot spitting junk to CL, saying file not found
Hi,
I am making a shell script in bash which uses gnuplot to plot the number of road accidents on a certain day, on a certain month. I believe I have the data correct. An example of my data file is here:
(So the left column [x axis] is the month, and the second [y] is the number of accidents, and the whole data set is for "monday")
But I cant seem to get gnuplot to make me an image, I tried putting in a <gpi> script, I got a simple graph(not what i wanted though) but then it didnt seem to want to plot, and there are problems with importing file name etc
Currently the code spits loads of unusual character to the command line, and then says the file is not found....
Here is my gnuplot code, if anyone can point me in the right direction I would be very grateful
Code:
gnuplot << EOF
set output "accidents_"$Postocode.png"
set terminal png
set size 1280,800
set data style linespoints
set title "Number of accidents within a radius of $2 from $Postcode"
set xlabel "Month"
set ylabel "Number of Accidents"
set xtics 1,1,12
set ytics 5,5,35
set key rmargin
plot "Day1Accidents.txt" using 1:2 title "Monday"
plot "Day2Accidents.txt" using 1:2 title "Tuesday"
plot "Day3Accidents.txt" using 1:2 title "Wednesday"
plot "Day4Accidents.txt" using 1:2 title "Thursday"
plot "Day5Accidents.txt" using 1:2 title "Friday"
plot "Day6Accidents.txt" using 1:2 title "Saturday"
plot "Day7Accidents.txt" using 1:2 title "Sunday"
EOF
Thanks

xpl2gpl
XPL2GPL(1) General Commands Manual XPL2GPL(1)NAME
xpl2gpl - Convert tcptrace-style xplot input to gnuplot input.
SYNOPSIS
xpl2gpl [-s] <file_name>
DESCRIPTION
xpl2gpl is a utility that converters tcptrace-style xplot input to gnuplot input. This converter gives a nearly perfect gnuplot reproduc-
tion of the corresponding xplot graph.
OPTIONS -s Seperate files. If you wish to plot only some data from the xpl file, you may use the -s option, which generates a bunch of data-
files filtered based on the color and plotting style.
EXAMPLES
xpl2gpl foo.xpl
This would produce files by the names "foo.gpl", "foo.datasets" and "foo.labels". Load the file "file_name.gpl" in gnuplot and it should
give you the plot.
NOTES
xpl2gpl is provided for convenience, as gnuplot is more commonly installed than the xplot package that tcptrace typically expects, and
because xplot has not always been available in Debian. If possible, you should consider installing the xplot-xplot.org package and using it
instead of using xpl2gpl.
