Hello,

thank your for your quick answers. I tried your suggestions, but still I have 
the problem.

I have 2.1.71 version and octave-forge is also installed. I followed your 
instructions but the problem remained. What I dont understand is that other 
mfiles work pretty well with the same syntax for plot command.

I am sorry for being so beginner I do not even know how to close gnuplot. If 
you think the commented line of the previous version of my mfile, so I deleted 
all close command from my file (this is a heritage from matlab:), restarted 
octave and the problem remained.

I am very confused because it sometimes works, sometimes doesnot, I feel myself 
very silly. Roughly I might say that plot command works pretty well at the 
command line + in all other mfiles I have with the only exception I mentioned 
last time. So I thought if some of you might have a good idea where to start 
searching my mistakes...

thank you again 

Klári
