Bill, you are right on both counts:
[1] double quotes not necessary (single quotes already taking care of
the blanks within path).
[2] "-e" obviously causing the error; plot working like a charm without it.
Don't know anything about this parameter; found it there in base.cfg ...
Thanks, Martin

I guess the double quotes are not needed but it may be the "-e" that
caused error. What is this "-e"? Can it be omitted? If not, try
another app such as acrobat reader.
