__gnuplot_send_inline_data__ (data);

[Philippe Leroux]

I subscribed to the mailling list after having read
about

 __gnuplot_send_inline_data__ (data);

in a post not long ago

today, octaves output a file in /tmp for each line
drawn

try 
 x=randn(2,200)+j*randn(2,200)
 plot(x)

you get 200 files of about 150 bytes (i have resierfs)

now do this hundreds of times to print png and make a
video out of it (i actually make a video of
connections between mobiles and base stations for my
actual work)

/tmp gets blotted and octave cant clear /tmp
because rm /tmp/oct* doesn't work (it echos : too many
arguments when doing it via the command line)

my /tmp got blotted by 6 Go before i realised this
with reiserfs it took one full night to remove the
files by removing : rm -rf /tmp 

moreover making those pngs via gnuplot with a temp
file
takes 100% of my second cpu (amd64 X2) by gnuplot
(hopefully i have two cpu :))

questions :
will  __gnuplot_send_inline_data__ (data)
prevent this, 
and how fast will it be to draw 500 lines * 500 frames


I cant wait to try it, when is  2.9.10 coming out? 

by the way
thank you very much for this piece of software 

and to answer an other post, using a bug reporting
tool would actually be great. 

P.L.
