 There are several ways to create multiple plots on a single diagramm:
 
-  -m: Several input files: Just give the name of the files on the command line together with the -m option
-  -M: A single file, the data for the different curves are in different columns: give the name of the file on the command line or pipe the data through standard in, and set the -M option
-  -S: A single file, the data for the different curves are in the same column, but the curves are separated by blank lines: give the name of the file on the command line or pipe the data through standard in, and set the -S option

-  -r intervals    (e.g. -r [5:10][0:100]) Change the range of the x and the y axis
-  -R aspect-ratio     (e.g. -R 0.8)   Change the aspect ratio of the plot
-  -s size-factor  (e.g. -s 1.5)   Change the size (resolution) of the plot
-  -l curve-type   (e.g. -l points)    Change the type of curve
-  -w line-width   (e.g. -w 2) Change the line width (default: 1)
-  -t title    (e.g. -t 'Error Rate@Recall@Precision') Change the title(s) of the curve(s) (separated by @)
-  -x x-options    (e.g. -x 'sigma')   Change options of the x-axis, e.g. the label but also other options.

 For example, creating a plot of three curves (three types of classification accuracy measures in this case) which are stored as three different columns in the file data.txt, with a custmozed x-axis label and customized plot titles as well as a manual setting of the x and y range, can be done with this command:
