None of my 5 existing, well established, gnuplot 4.6 scripts run under gnuplot-base 5.4 which I just installed. Let's start with: This fragment works as I intended under gnuplot 4.6. It reads the first line of a file named in ARG1 and extracts the first field. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- inputfile = ARG1 starttime = system("head -c 37 " . inputfile . "| awk '{print $1}' " ) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- However, in gnuplot-base (5.4 patchlevel 0) The '$1' persistently translates to the second gnuplot-base command line argument (ie: ARG2). It is not supposed to be assigned to anything as far as I know. I have a work around but this appears to be a very severe bug. This is only the first error I'm working through. I'm actually working on restoring gnuplot 4.6.
