Re: mouse support in gnuplot-3.8c

[Phil Cummins]

Hello,

  Thanks, Thomas. Why didn't I think of .octaverc?
(On second thought, no, don't tell me!). Putting
"gset mouse" in .octavrc works fine.
  For what it's worth I can report that the mouse
enhancement in gnuplot-3.8c seems to work really 
well. You can zoom (and unzoom) and put notations 
on the figure. Very useful for the kind of work I 
have to do.
  It looks like the pm3d enhancement is also very 
nice but I haven't tried that yet.
