an example (found at the end of the package): Needs["Graphics`MultipleListPlot`"] data1 = Table[{x, BesselJ[0, x]}, {x,0,10,0.8}]; data2 = Table[{x, BesselY[0, x]}, {x,0.1,10,0.8}]; sym1 = PlotSymbol[Box, 2]; sym2 = PlotSymbol[Triangle, Filled -> False]; MultipleListPlot[data1, data2, SymbolShape -> {sym1, sym2}, PlotJoined -> True] MultipleListPlot[data1, data2, PlotJoined -> True, PlotLegend -> {"Data 1", "Data 2"}, LegendShadow -> {0.02,-0.02}, LegendPosition -> {-2,-0.5}] By the way, Gnuplot is much better documented than Mathematica. Onece one go through gnuplot demos, don't need to spend too much time in doing a nice plot and put them in a Latex document.
