strange you find it works. There are at least two errors that fail to
get past the gnuplot parser:
1. smooth requires an option modifier such as csplines , it is not
valid on its own.
2. the file name must come before all options
3. mydata.dat must be in quotes otherwise it gets read as a command
and fails
I think describing this as nonsense is justified.

BTW I did read the whole post, I even gave you valid advise on what
command does exactly what you want and refered you to the relevant
help topic. You neither acknowlege or thank me. But I won't get upset,
I'm having a good day today ;)
Maybe the other cruft got in the way and you missed my post.
greets.
