Subject: gnuplot won't work with new net release
Reply-to: tomcw AT localnet DOT com

	I am running octave 2.0.13 on the cygwin platform.  Octave 
saves its plot data to a temp file, then points gnuplot to that file in 
order to plot it.  The problem is that gnuplot only understands 
directories in the c:/tmp form and octave understands //c/tmp.  In 
B20.1 I set an environment variable TMPDIR to c:/tmp, and both 
programs liked it.  The new net release translates this environment 
variable to /cygdrive/c/tmp/, and gnuplot can not understand it.  Is 
there any way to keep cygwin from making this translation?  Any 
other ideas?

Thanks,
  
Tom Weichmann
