Here's a post that I had previously found useful: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19412382/gnuplot-line-types I think this is only semi-offtopic because gretl uses gnuplot so tightly integrated. >> set termoption dashed >> >> in the version of GNUPlot packaged with the current snapshot? >> I think this is changed from gnuplot 4 to 5. Quoting from the linked page above: [In version 5] "The terminal options dashed and solid are ignored. By default all lines are solid. To change them to dashed, use e.g. set for [i=1:8] linetype i dashtype i" So the new gnuplot option 'dashtype' would play the central role.
