I use gretl ver. 1.8.0 in debian with gnuplot ver 4.2.
The first line of the graph output (file) of gretl is :
set term png truecolor small size 680,400
and gnuplot fails. If I remove that line then I can create the graph.
Is is possible to configure gretl not to include the first line
of the gnuplot file?
No, but you should be OK if you "downgrade" to gnuplot 4.2.4.
There's another possibility: if you have a recent version of
gretl, there should be a directory /usr/share/gretl/fonts,
containing Vera.ttf. If that's the case, try opening
~/.gretl2rc in a text editor: look for the line
Png_font = ...
and make it
Png_font = Vera 9
That may make gnuplot behave properly.
