Hi,
I need to generate a bar graph like this : There should
be divided bars, with each bar divided into three parts,
coloured red, yellow and white. There should be one bar for
each month of a year. Does anybody knows how to generate such
a graph using gnuplot ?

Thanks in advance,

Cheers,
rama

Use a recent versison of gnuplot (e.g. 3.6beta (pl347))

Use the boxwidth command and the possibility to
calculate values in the using option of plot.

Just calculate the boxvalues like you want, e.g :
plot "x.dat" using ($0-0.2):1 linetype 2, "" using ($0-0.2):($1+$2) linetype 3, using ($0+0.2):3 linetype 2, "" using ($0+0.2):($3+$4) linetype 3

You will get the idea, when you see my example contained in the
archive with the awk script, which allows filled boxes.
