[IPython-user] Setting the linewidth with Gnuplot2

[Andrea Riciputi]

Here are my settings, suggested by Fernando some time ago. At the 
beginning of my own plot library, I declare the following variable:

import IPython.GnuplotRuntime as GP
...

gp_reset = """

#... a lot of gnuplot stuff

# new linestyles (access as 'linestyle N' or 'ls N' in <with='lines ls 
N'>)
set style line 1 lt -1 lw 1 pt 10 ps 1.8
set style line 2 lt 1 lw 1 pt 1 ps 1.8
set style line 3 lt 3 lw 1 pt 4 ps 1.8
set style line 4 lt 2 lw 1 pt 8 ps 1.8
set style line 10 lt 11 lw 1 pt 7 ps 1.8
set style line 11 lt 12 lw 1 pt 5 ps 1.8
set style line 12 lt 10 lw 1 pt 9 ps 1.8
set style line 20 lt 11 lw 2 pt 6 ps 1.8
set style line 21 lt 12 lw 2 pt 4 ps 1.8
set style line 22 lt 10 lw 2 pt 8 ps 1.8
"""%locals() #if you want to use some variables

# and then

gp = GP.gp # live gnuplot instance
gp(gp_reset)

So that when I want to plot something I can do:

gp.plot(GP.Data(x, y, with = "lines ls 20"))

Hope this help,
   Andrea.
