I've tested and your command generates that command for gnuplot

 pl '/tmp/oct-smJJLG' u 1:2 t "" w linespoints 0

(it isn't continuous line) it looks on my screen as sparse doted line :(

You din't say which terminal you use. If you wrote about gnuplot on X11 you
can play with X-resources for gnuplot described on:

http://www.sunsite.ualberta.ca/Documentation/Gnu/gnuplot-3.7.1/html_node/gnuplot_221.html

with them you can get gray & black lines or even black background.
