OSError: [WinError 10093] Either the application has not called WSAStartup, or WSAStartup failed

Hi,

when I run on windows. It shows:

gp.plot( np.linspace(-5,5,30)**2,unset='grid', terminal='dumb 80 40' ) Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in File "C:\Users\rounan_feng\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38\lib\site-packages\gnuplotlib.py", line 2648, in plot globalplot = gnuplotlib(**jointOptions) File "C:\Users\rounan_feng\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38\lib\site-packages\gnuplotlib.py", line 1480, in init self._startgnuplot() File "C:\Users\rounan_feng\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38\lib\site-packages\gnuplotlib.py", line 1534, in _startgnuplot errorMessage, warnings = self._checkpoint('printwarnings') File "C:\Users\rounan_feng\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38\lib\site-packages\gnuplotlib.py", line 1694, in _checkpoint rlist,wlist,xlist = select.select([self.gnuplotProcess.stderr],[], [], OSError: [WinError 10093] Either the application has not called WSAStartup, or WSAStartup failed

Is that possible to solve?

Hi. I don't use windows, so I can't help you. I'm sure making it work there is possible, but somebody else would have to actually implement it, and to do the work. Something's wrong with select(), but I don't know what.
