- Hi !
-
- I have a sequence of the following pairs: [<date> <value>], where
- <date> is expressed as the number of seconds elapsed since the
- beginning of UNIX era (Jan 1 00:00 1970). Dates are not continuous,
- meaning that there's a gap between consecutive values of <date>.
- How do I get normal-looking dates on the plot as range markings for
- the "date" axis ? Something like "Oct 1 10:15:34" instead of 74938183
- (or, 75*10**6, rather) is what I need. Is it at all possible ? Your
- help is very much appreciated. Thanks.
-

- P.S. If it's impossible to do with GNUPLOT, maybe you know of some
- other graphics package that allows to do that together with
- being able to produce PostScript files with plots
- non-interactively ?
