Hi Ignasi,

yes, that is possible since pgfplots 1.5 : use 'plot unprocessed to 
file={<file name>}':

\begin{tikzpicture}
\begin{axis}[
%    enlargelimits=false,
     domain=0:2*pi,
     samples=200,
     every axis plot post/.append style={mark=none},
     cycle list name=exotic,
     axis y line=left,
     axis x line=middle,
     xmax=7,
     ymin=-1.2,
     ymax=1.2,
     xtick=\empty,
     ytick=\empty
     ]
\addplot {sin(deg(x))};
\addplot {sin(deg(3*x))};
\addplot[plot unprocessed to file={P.dat}] {sin(deg(x))+0.5*sin(deg(3*x))};
\end{axis}
\end{tikzpicture}

\begin{tikzpicture}
     \begin{axis}
     \addplot file {P.dat};
     \end{axis}
\end{tikzpicture}

The feature might not be 100% stable (which is why it has not yet been 
documented). You can still use it - and I appreciate any bug reports.

Best regards

Christian

All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a
definitive record of customers, application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. Business sense. IT sense. Common sense.
