But the gnuplot news group is silent about this issue. I do have gnuplot mode working but not using it here. ~/$ gnuplot -p -e 'plot x' Does indeed bring up a terminal which persists. The same when run from a bash shell inside emacs works fine too. But when executing this as a comint process, i.e. using Emacs as the shell script editor and running the shell script it does not. The plot is generated and disappears immediately. I am relatively new to Emacs. Perhaps I am just trying things too difficult for me at this stage. Not quite sure what comint is to begin with. Thoughts? All help welcome. Alex van der Spek
