german Umlaut

[Sebastian Walter]

Hi there,
does anybody know a way to use german "umlaute" in gnuplot labels
using postscript as terminal? Maybe using "postscript enhanced" ?
I want to avoid pslatex...

I appreciate any suggestion.
Thanks,
Sebastian.

Which version of gnuplot are you using?
Hmm anyway, if 3.5 just write the umlaute in the Commands, like
set title "Kühl"
If your shell doesn't permitt that, write it into a file with
gnuplot commands and load that.

gnuplot 3.6 can set the character encoding with
set encoding iso_8859_1

Hmm there might be another way with postscript enhanced but i use
the described methods.
