lmtx example for gnuplot inclusion
"C:\Program Files\gnuplot\bin\wgnupl32.exe" %*
:(if that was the binary name) and put that file to a <i>"visible place"</i> (has to be found in PATH). Please note: if calling <code>gnuplot</code> from cmd works for you, there is no need to do anything extra.
* '''[[write18Write18]]''' has to be enabled
=== To use the ConTeXt terminal (recommended) ===
==== Windows ====
\useGNUPLOTgraphic[tan]
\useGNUPLOTgraphic[sin][width=10cm]
</texcode>
== Example with externalfigure ==
In [[LMTX]] we can use externalfigure for gnuplot files like this:
m-gnuplot-demo.gp
<texcode>
set format xy "$%g$"
set title 'This is a plot of $y=\\sin(x)$'
set xlabel 'This is the $x$ axis'
set ylabel 'This is the $y$ axis'
plot [0:6.28] [0:1] sin(x)
</texcode>
Then including it in the .tex file with externalfigure and svg conversion:
<texcode>
\usemodule[gnuplot]
\starttext
\externalfigure[m-gnuplot-demo.gp][conversion=svg,width=4cm]
\stoptext
</texcode>
