OK. I will post to bug #48474. Thanks!
Your newly filed bug #53861 is about the tikzstandalone device not being recognized by Octave. And bug #48474 is still open, which is about adding more terminals to the gnuplot binary bundled with Octave for Windows. So I think we are covered, no need to keep this bug open.
Or change title to tikzs support for octave for winodws with gnuplot embeded with octave
I raised a post to octave-maintainers list. http://octave.1599824.n4.nabble.com/unknown-device-tikzstandalone-td4687923.html Please close here. Sorry for noise. Perhaps I file a bug by another title.
Hmmmm using external gnuplot that has lua/tikz terminal
>> gnuplot_binary C:\Programs\gp523-64\bin\gnuplot >> graphics_toolkit gnuplot >> fplot ("[cos(x), sin(x)]", [0, 2*pi]) >> print("test.tikz", "-dtikzstandalone") error: print: unknown device tikzstandalone error: called from __print_parse_opts__ at line 259 column 5 print at line 322 column 8 >> print("test.tikz", "-dtikz") ## works for tikz but not tikzstandalone
I should change the title.
There is no tikzstandalone support for octave for winodws because tikzstandalone requires gnuplot with lua/tikz terminal and embedded gnuplot with octave for windows does not support lua/tikz terminal. At the bug tracker in the past https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=48474 I submitted the patch which enables some terminals including the lua/tikz terminal. https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=48474#comment74 But tikz support has been ignored until now. Why has been the patch for lua/tikz ignored? In octave manual, description of tikzslandalone exists and it is mentioned that tikzslandalone require lua/tikz terminal for gnuplot. I think that gnuplot embedded with octave must have lua/tikz support. Otherwise please delete description oh of the tikzslandalone from the manual.
