The points style displays a small symbol at each point. The command set
pointsize may be used to change the default size of the points.
1 or 2 columns of basic input data are required in 2D plots; 1 or 3 columns are
required in 3D plots. See style lines (p.
). Additional input columns may be used
to provide information such as variable point size or variable point color.
The first 8 point types are shared by all terminals. Individual terminals may
provide a much larger number of distinct point types. Use the test command
to show what is provided by the current terminal. Alternatively any single
printable character may be given instead of a point type, as in the example
below. Longer strings may be plotted using the plot style labels rather than
points.
