Hi,
I want to plot two columns of an org table: the first column (the "x"
coordinate) consists of dates, the second column contains a time value
associated with each date.
It seems this is not as easy to do as I had hoped: AFAIU, for making
gnuplot interpret the "y"-value (!) as a time value I need to add
something like
using "1:(timecolumn(2,\"%H:%M\"))"
to the gnuplot command line (it took me quite a while to find out how to
do it at all...)
And AFAIK this is only possible by tweaking
`org-plot/preset-plot-types'. I need to add a complete new type of
plot!
Is there maybe a simpler way (I know I could add redundant columns to
the table to help org - that's not really what I want, though)?
TIA,
Michael.
