(Assuming that you are working on 32-bit machine; for 64-bit processor
PATH to binaries is a bit different: linux->linux-64.)
1.) You can install TeX Live 2008 with "ConTeXt scheme" under
arbitrary folder from http://www.tug.org/texlive/acquire.html, but I
would need to review the details of installation, though it should be
straightforward. I suggest 2.)
2.) For a standalone ConTeXt distribution (that you can use completely
independent of TeX Live; you may "install" it anywhere, uninstalling
means just "rm" that folder).
## Installation:
cd /path/to
rsync -p rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/setup/first-setup.sh .
./first-setup.sh --extras=t-gnuplot
# then you may go for a coffee while fonts are being downloaded
# (about 200-250 MB in total)
# this only sets the PATH to binaries (one can set path manually as well)
. tex/setuptex
# should not be needed, but just to make sure
mktexlsr
texexec --make --all
## Usage:
Either
. /path/to/tex/setuptex
Or
export PATH=/path/to/tex/texmf-linux/bin:$PATH
## Module usage
If you have the right gnuplot binary in path, you can try
\enableregime[utf-8]
\setupcolors[state=start]
\usemodule[gnuplot]
\starttext
% write a script for gnuplot
\startGNUPLOTscript[sin]
plot sin(x)
\stopGNUPLOTscript
% include the resulting graphic into the document
\placefigure{testing}{\useGNUPLOTgraphic[sin]}
\stoptext
and compile it with
texexec filename
Else just start with
set term context standalone
that should give you a ready-to-compile document (I have not been
using this feature for a long time; I have just realized that it
outputs empty between plots pages, but that's a minor bug in the
ConTeXt style file and is not related to gnuplot terminal; I mean -
trm file doesn't need to be fixed).
