In interactive mode gnuplot remembers all the settings for the current plot. It knows what to do when I type 'replot'. So, is there a way to dump all of the current settings into a script file?

See the <code>save</code> command. You use it as follows: <pre class="prettyprint"><code>save "My_stuff_goes_to_this_file.txt" </code></pre> Here's a (small) excerpt from the docs: <blockquote> The <code>save</code> command saves user-defined functions, variables, the <code>set term</code> status, all <code>set</code> options, or all of these, plus the last <code>plot</code> (<code>splot</code>) command to the specified file. Syntax: save {option} 'filename' </blockquote>

See the save command.

You use it as follows:

save "My_stuff_goes_to_this_file.txt"

Here's a (small) excerpt from the docs:

The save command saves user-defined functions, variables, the set term status, all set options, or all of these, plus the last plot (splot) command to the specified file.

Syntax: save {option} 'filename'
