In a script intended to plot two sets of data points,
the plotting statement is
plot 'plotII.dat' w p pt 7 rgb "blue",\
'plotIII.dat' w p pt 7 rgb "red"
This produces the following error message.
gnuplot> plot 'plotII.dat' w p pt 7 rgb "blue", 'plotIII.dat' w p pt 7
rgb "red"

line 0: unexpected or unrecognized token: rgb
But if I remove the second half, from the comma onwards, it does plot
the first set as blue points.
Why is this, and what should I do?
morning,
you must put a "lc" for linecolor in front of the rgb.
plot 'plotII.dat' w p pt 7 lc rgb "blue",\
'plotIII.dat' w p pt 7 lc rgb "red"
Jörg
Thank you, that works. I wonder why it works for
just one without the lc.
Doesn't work here, neither with 5.4 or 6.0

or an ancient 4.6
