Re: Plot-X-Y with LUA

["Aakash Jariwala <sthu111@xxxxxxxxx>" <sthu111@xxxxxxxxx>]

Your question is the same question I asked in post 1771 and Mr. 
Meeker answered in post 1772. Batch scripting is easier Mr. Meeker's 
way than what Mr. Quinting wrote. Here is what I wrote in my batch 
post: 

smooth("on")
seteditmode("contour")
addcontour(x1, y1)
addcontour(x2, y2)
makeplot(1, 150, "C:\\data.txt", 0)
exitpost()

Like Mr. Meeker said, the function makeplot is describe on pages 56-
57 of the new manual. Hope this helps.
