Can't do that in Gnuplot, AFAIU. You get either 
4-corners average or one of the corners. You'd 
have to shift gridlines and labels instead.

That combination wasn't 'lucky' in the sense of 
'well guessed'.

I wanted just what's on screen (now), i.e. 
coloured-squares visualisation of discrete 
Gaussian distribution in 2d, centered on (0,0), 
with squares' centers representing gridlines.

Like for representing digital low pass filtering 
of rasters.

The problem is (is it a bug? a feature?) that 
'samples' setting if used by itself (without 
'isosamples') produces *asymmetrical* picture 
along X and Y axii, which shouldn't be the case, 
as whatever value 'isosamples' was set to, it 
should be (?) used for both axii.

Just guessing, looks like a case of 
non-propagation of generalised values to 
non-generalised ones in the program source.

Thank you for that 'contourfill' snippet, looks 
interesting. But for my ongoing projects I'll 
stick with what I know. :)
