Hello,
I have a question to formatting of values. I have a datafile with values
for a measurement about 24 hours (01:24 xxx). When I use the example
for timefmt from help I become xlabels from 00:00 to 00:00.
What can I do for xlabels like 00:00 to 24:00?
Thanx for help,
TThomas

Of course you do. That timefmt is just an *example*, and it doesn't
match your file format. You'll have to adapt it. For your data, it'd
be

set timefmt '%H:%M'
set format x '%H:%M'
set xdata time
plot 'datafile' using 1:2

Thanks for your help, but it doesn't work. Unfortunaly I forgot to say
that the measurement time is exactly 24 hours. So I become with your
solution the same output as before. I think I should the time input
change to integer input.
