OK. I added the following to the NEWS file:
+ Octave no longer creates temporary data files for plotting, but
instead sends data over the same pipe that is used to send
commands to gnuplot. While this avoids the problem of
cluttering /tmp with data files, it is no longer possible to use
the mouse to zoom in on plots. This is a limitation of gnuplot,
which is unable to zoom when the data it plots is not stored in
a file.
I would welcome clarification or a way to state this point more
clearly.
Thanks,
