Wgnuplot.ini

Windows gnuplot will read some of its options from the [WGNUPLOT] section of WGNUPLOT.INI in the Windows directory. An example WGNUPLOT.INI file is shown below.

 [WGNUPLOT]
 TextOrigin=0 0
 TextSize=640 150
 TextFont=Terminal,9
 GraphOrigin=0 150
 GraphSize=640 330
 GraphFont=Arial,10
 GraphColor=1
 GraphToTop=1
 GraphBackground=255 255 255
 Border=0 0 0 0 0
 Axis=192 192 192 2 2
 Line1=0 0 255 0 0
 Line2=0 255 0 0 1
 Line3=255 0 0 0 2
 Line4=255 0 255 0 3
 Line5=0 0 128 0 4

The GraphFont entry specifies the font name and size in points. The 5 numbers given in the Border, Axis and Line entries are the Red intensity (0-255), Green intensity, Blue intensity, Color Linestyle and Mono Linestyle. Linestyles are 0=SOLID, 1=DASH, 2=DOT, 3=DASHDOT, 4=DASHDOTDOT. In the example WGNUPLOT.INI file above, Line 2 is a green solid line in color mode, or a dashed line in monochrome mode. The default line width is 1 pixel. If Linestyle is negative it specifies the width of a SOLID line in pixels. Line1 and any linestyle used with the points style must be SOLID with unit width.
