7.4.7 Exporting Plot Data
-------------------------

If you want some external program to process the plot data (a
stand-alone Gnuplot program or the `xmgr' program, for instance), you
can save the plot data in a file, using `File => Save Data As'.  This
pops up a dialog that lets you choose a data file to save the plotted
data in.

   The generated file starts with a few comment lines.  The actual data
follows in X/Y or X/Y/Z format.  It is the same file as processed by
Gnuplot.
