True. And according to https://sourceforge.net/p/gnuplot/bugs/2245/ this 
particular bug for a timecolumn is fixed already.

However, when I was writing about a formatted reading I meant something of a 
more general nature when ANY column could be read through a format, not 
necessarily a time column. This of course raises a somewhat philosophical 
question on whether this should be done in Gnuplot and not through a  standard 
awk/sed/whatever machinery...

Thanks,
Sergei
