Keep Gnuplot auto refresh window inactive

Viewed 6361

I am running a simple script, that reads data from a file and plots it. My problem is that I reread and replot the data, as the file continuously changes. Whenever I use refresh the plot window becomes active again, which I would like to prevent. I would like the plot to be updated in the background. Is this possible?

My sample script:

#!/usr/bin/gnuplot
set datafile separator ","
plot "data.dat" using 1:3
pause 1; refresh; reread;
