Hello Robert,
Certainly, these two versions should be fully compatible, since the
linecolor (lc) keyword was introduced in gnuplot 4.2
I can't reproduce this problem with either gnuplot 4.3 or 4.2 in my
ubuntu box.
If you continue having this problem, once you have files maxout.gnuplot
and data.gnuplot in you personal folder, call gnuplot from terminal and type
load 'maxout.gnuplot'
to see if you get the same errors, in this case, please send both files
to me and I'll take a closer look.
Sorry if this is not of much help, but that's all I can say for the moment.
Thanks for your reports.
