hehe, always followed by questions...
I am using gnuplot to output figures. A question is here:
I can use 'set terminal' to select output format,
there are quite a number of them, which is the most
convenient? I am now using postscript and then use PSreader
to convert it to eps, very boring.
Another problem is how to set the scale of figure? I have
output two figures so far, the first one is pretty ok. but
in the second one the y-axis becomes longer than the x-axis
and the figure looks verticall

I usually use something like
set terminal postscript eps enhanced color "Times-Roman" 20
set output "file.eps"
This will result in an EPS file that uses the PS Times-Roman font
at 10 pt as the default font; when the "eps" option is specified,
the specified pt size (20) is divided by 2 to give the actual pt size.
Try one or more of these commands (say "help set ..." to see the
full syntax): set xrange, set yrange, set size, set xtics, set ytics,
set mxtics, set mytics
