 The **Gnuplot.jl** package comes with all the [ColorSchemes](https://juliagraphics.github.io/ColorSchemes.jl/stable/basics/#Pre-defined-schemes-1) palettes readily available.
 
 A `gnuplot`-compliant palette can be retrieved with `palette()`, and used as any other command.  The previous example may use an alternative palette with:
 ```@example abc
 x = 0:0.1:10pi
