Set-show

The set command can be used to set lots of options. No screen is drawn, however, until a plot, splot, or replot command is given.

The show command shows their settings; show all shows all the settings.

Options changed using set can be returned to the default state by giving the corresponding unset command. See also the reset (p. [*]) command, which returns all settable parameters to default values.

If a variable contains time/date data, show will display it according to the format currently defined by set timefmt, even if that was not in effect when the variable was initially defined.
