- Possibly Kevin's problem is due to decompression software. I have used two
- versions of wgnuplot, including the 3.3 version. pkunzip was unable to read
- either of them. There is a file called unzip.exe, available at places like
- cica and wuarchive, which was able to decompress both versions.
-
- I also have had few problems with the 3.3 version. The crashes which I have
- had seem to be related to trying to plot large data sets.
