Loadpath
</H2>
The <B>loadpath</B> setting defines additional locations for data and command
files searched by the <B>call</B>, <B>load</B>, <B>plot</B> and <B>splot</B> commands. If a
file cannot be found in the current directory, the directories in
<B>loadpath</B> are tried.
<P>
Syntax:
<BR>
<PRE>
set loadpath {"pathlist1" {"pathlist2"...}}
show loadpath
</PRE>
<BR>
<P>
Path names may be entered as single directory names, or as a list of
path names separated by a platform-specific path separator, eg. colon
(':') on Unix, semicolon (';') on DOS/Windows/OS/2/Amiga platforms.
The <B>show loadpath</B>, <B>save</B> and <B>save set</B> commands replace the
platform-specific separator with a space character (' ') for maximum
portability.
<P>
If the environment variable GNUPLOT_LIB is set, its contents are
appended to <B>loadpath</B>. However, <B>show loadpath</B> prints the contents
of user defined loadpath and system loadpath separately. Also, the
<B>save</B> and <B>save set</B> commands save only the user specified parts of
<B>loadpath</B>, for portability reasons.
