It does make sense and gnuplot supports this perfectly fine. From the gnuplot info manual (commands > set-show > xtics), an example is: : set xtics ("low" 0, "medium" 50, "high" 100) however, how to get this from org into gnuplot is something I cannot help with.

Maybe babel is the way to go but I wouldn't have a clue where to start... --Multipart_Sat_Aug_21_21:35:03_2010-1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII -- Eric S Fraga GnuPG: 8F5C 279D 3907 E14A 5C29 570D C891 93D8 FFFC F67D --Multipart_Sat_Aug_21_21:35:03_2010-1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
