How do I plot to file only on octave-3 (ie. no X11)

[emil Karlson-2]

Good evening

I was  wondering is it possible to plot to file only on octave-3, or
plot to NULL and then print as usual.

On octave-2 this was easy with gset terminal ps and such.

This is relevant because:
1) I may want multiple plots for animations.
2) I may want to work over ssh and X is very slow in these situations.

Best regards

As this comes up once in a while, I've added it to the FAQ on the wiki:

        figure(1, "visible", "off");
        plot(sin(1:100));
        print -deps "/tmp/sin.eps"

Is it possible to set "visible", "off" as the default for all further figures?

Cheers,
Shaun

set(0, 'defaultfigurevisible', 'off');

Michael.
