If your output device is set up to give you color, you should be getting
different colors for each curve (but probably wrapping around after 8
or something like that) by default.  You can cahnge the colors by putting
the line and point style indices at the end of the affected section of the
'plot' command:

  plot f1(x) with lines 3, f2(x) with points 0 5

will plot f1 with a line of style 3 and f2 with points of style 5 ( the '0'
is a dummy place-holder).

You can see the palette -- which index goes with which style -- by using
the command 'test'.


If your output device supports color but you are getting black-and-white,
you can probably switch to color by using an option on the 'set terminal'
command -- see the manual or on-line help for details.


If your output device doesn't support color...
