Version 3.5 of gnuplot is available at the official repositories listed below. It is available both as a compressed tar file, gnuplot3.5.tar.Z, and a shar file of diffs for patch, gp34to35.shar.Z. This is a bugfix mod intended to correct some but not all of the problems with version 3.4. A summary of the mods are listed at the end of this file. We have included an experimental autoconfigure script. However, we strongly encourage you to use makefile.unx or the makefile.xxx intended for you configuration. In particular, you must use makefile.g if you are using the GRASS GIS system. At the time of this writing, the following are the official distribution sites and transfer instructions. Note that prep.ai.mit.edu is NOT an official site, and may not be up to date. Also, comp.sources.misc is usually a month or so behind us.
