Gnuplot - data points in script

Question

I have C++ program that now generates two files:

So, for plot I need to have two files which are related to each other.

Is there any possibility, to pack it all to one file? I mean: to put data points coordinates inside gnuplot script?

I am using gnuplot 4.4.

Yes, you can put datapoints inside your gnuplot script. The simplest example would be

plot "-" with lines, "-" with lines
1 1
2 2
3 3
e
1 3
2 2
3 1

I would mention that for more information you can look for 'special-filenames' in the gnuplot documentation: http://gnuplot.sourceforge.net/docs_4.6/gnuplot.pdf – andyras Oct 04 '12 at 12:23
