@subsection Viewing results with gnuplot
@cindex gnuplot

Simulation results may be viewed in
@uref{http://www.gnuplot.org,gnuplot} with the command
Simulation plots may be conveniently selected, viewed with
@uref{http://www.gnuplot.org,gnuplot} 
and saved to file (in PostScript format) using the command

@example
mtt [options] rc gnuplot view
@end example

The plot format is controlled by the file @emph{sys_gnuplot.txt}. A default version
of this file, which will cause gnuplot to plot the time-history of each state
This will cause a menu to be displayed, from which states and outputs may be selected for viewing. Clicking on a @emph{parameter name} will cause a new window to be opened displaying the time history of the selected parameter. Selecting the @emph{print} option in the main window provides the option of saving to file a plot of the last selected parameter. Clicking on the @emph{title bar} of the main window (``Outputs'' or ``States'') will alter the order in which the parameter names are displayed.
and each output individually, may be created with the command

@example
mtt rc gnuplot txt
@end example
It should be noted that unlike other representations, if a simulation has been previously run in a directory, this command will @emph{not} cause @strong{MTT} to re-run a simulation, even if any of the input files have been changed.

resulting in
If it is desired to re-run a simulation, it is advisable to run the command 

@example
wait=-1
set data style lines
set xlabel "time"
set grid
set term X11

mtt [options] rc odeso view ; mtt [options] rc gnuplot view
plot "rc_odes.dat2" using 1:4 axes x1y1 title "rc_c_c;
pause(wait);
plot "rc_odes.dat2" using 1:2 axes x1y1 title "rc_e2_e2
; pause(wait);
@end example

The file is used as an input to the gnuplot program and may therefore be
edited to contain any valid gnuplot commands.
As with @strong{xMTT} (@pxref{Menu-driven interface}), the Wish Tcl/Tk interpreter must be installed to make use of this feature.
