gnuplot demo plots

You can see plenty of live screenshots if you run gnuplot interactively and type command

    gnuplot> load "all.dem"

in gnuplot's demo/ directory — it should be part of your installation, otherwise get it from the source code archive or file-by-file from cvs.

Hint: you can get a single big postscript file of all the demo plots by the following sequence of commands

    gnuplot> set terminal postscript color solid
    gnuplot> set output "all_demos.ps"
    gnuplot> load "all.dem"
    gnuplot>

Gnuplot in publications

Number of publications and books using graphics produced by gnuplot cannot be enumerated — there are really so many, mainly in scientific works. Maybe just few, which are freely available on the web:
