Can't obtain Postscript output from Gnuplot 4.2



Hi,

The following script yields a complete Postscript file showing a
simple plot when executed by Gnuplot 4.0 on Windows XP.
But when I try the same script with Gnuplot 4.2, the PS
output file is truncated as shown below. Any suggestions?

Thanks for any help.

Robert Dodier

PS. Here is the script and the tail of the output file.

------------ begin test1.gp ------------
set term postscript
set out 'test1.ps'
