we're still having problems saving our graphs.

we type the following get the resulting error:
>set term png color
>set output 'graph.png'
set: Variable name must begin with a letter.


what are we doing wrong.

thanks.

That looks fine...

1. can you figure out which line is causing the problem? (ie, start
gnuplot manually, and copy and paste each line into that window until
you get the error.

2. can you send me your complete .tcl script?

Hi Daniel,

Not sure if you still has this issue. But I came across the same issue. it turns out i have a typo in the first line of the file.
#~/usr/bin/gnuplot
please make sure the fist two characters are "#!".
