Hi,

first of all, thanks a lot for gnuplot 4.0,
a nice program that fits into the Unix/Linux phylosophy
of command driven tools. :-)

I have a small comments, though.
It took to me quite a while to find out that

set format "10^{%L}"

was what I needed to correctly display the x and y axis
quantities for a log-log plot.

Is there a place where such tips are collected?
Is anyone thinking of writing a companion document to the
"official" gnuplot documentation?

Luciano :-)
ps.
I don't consider myself a troll and
I DON'T want to start a flame!
I wish gnuplot could just be more useful and appreciated
with a little bit more effort on the documentation.
My 2cents contribution is

set format "10^{%L}"

to nicely diplay the x and y axixs lavel in a loglog plot.
This is also finding its way in my (unordered!)
computer logbook :-)
