usage of -i option with psxy

Hello,

I’ve tried to map with GMT5.1.0 the seamounts database Global_Seamounts_JGR2001_revised.txt published by Paul Wessel in 2001, with seamount radius as symbol size.

So, using awk, I write :

awk '{if((substr($1,1,1)!="#")&&(substr($1,1,1)!=">")&&($1!=""))print($1,$2,0.0025*$6)}' Global_Seamounts_JGR2001_revised.txt  |\
gmt psxy -R -J -Scc -Wthinner,black -Gfirebrick -O -V >> $map

It works (attached map below). 

Reading the GMT5.1.0 manual, I believed I could do the same without awk, with the psxy -i option, choosing longitude (1), latitude (2) and seamount size (6th) columns of the file and resizing seamount radius. So, I write :

gmt psxy -R -J -Scc -i1,2,6s0.025 -hi  -Wthinner,black-Gfirebrick -O -V >> $map

but it doesn’t work : data symbols are not plotted with the expected size nor at the good location.

Where am I wrong ?
Thanks for help,

Cyril
