symbols in a figure

[Mikhail Zotov]

Hi,

I am running Octave 2.0.14 under linux RH 6.0.
I face the following problem.  Suppose I want to plot
some data with discrete symbols like

plot(x,y,"*")

Then in an x-window plot I really get asterisks (*).
But if I make an eps file then by entering

gset term postscript eps
gset output "xy.eps"
replot

then I get circles instead of asterisks in a figure.
Other symbols are transformed like this:

x11  eps

 o    +
 +    x
 x    open square
@35   filled square

Is this a natural behavior or do I do something wrong?

Thank you!

Mikhail
