Replot
</H1>
The <B>replot</B> command without arguments repeats the last <B>plot</B> or <B>splot</B>
command. This can be useful for viewing a plot with different <B>set</B> options,
or when generating the same plot for several devices.
<P>
Arguments specified after a <B>replot</B> command will be added onto the last
<B>plot</B> or <B>splot</B> command (with an implied ',' separator) before it is
repeated. <B>replot</B> accepts the same arguments as the <B>plot</B> and <B>splot</B>
commands except that ranges cannot be specified. Thus you can use <B>replot</B>
to plot a function against the second axes if the previous command was <B>plot</B>
but not if it was <B>splot</B>.
<P>
N.B. -- use of
<P>
<BR>
<PRE>
plot '-' ; ... ; replot
</PRE>
<BR>
<P>
is not recommended, because it will require that you type in the data all
over again. In most cases you can use the <B>refresh</B> command instead, which
will redraw the plot using the data previously read in.
<P>
Note that <B>replot</B> does not work in <B>multiplot</B> mode, since it reproduces
only the last plot rather than the entire screen.
<P>
