Syntax:
set imaginary_i {"<character string>"}
The gprintf format specifier %Ci prints a complex value {A,B} as A + Bi (see gprintf complex). The command set imaginary_i "<character string>" modifies the action of %Ci by replacing the character "i" with the character string requested. Common conventions for this string are shown in the table below. If no character string is given, the default is restored.
