Any good editor for gnuplot?

Question

I have been looking for good gnuplot editor for a while without success. I am using the gedit with gnuplot syntax highlight plugin, but it doen't work well. Does anyone know a good editor though?

Answer 1

I use gedit (Linux only, I think), that has a good support for syntax highlighting for any language. I remember I had to manually add an additional highlighting file that can be downloaded here, but maybe current versions include that file.

You can checkout here for some technical details.

Edit: Once you have downloaded the gnuplot.lang file, just run these two commands and restart gedit (From bugs.debian.org). Works perfectly.

sudo cp gnuplot.lang /usr/share/gtksourceview-3.0/language-specs/
sudo chmod 644 /usr/share/gtksourceview-3.0/language-specs/gnuplot.lang
