You have tripped up on a misfeature which
should be documented, or worked around.
I'll attend to it in the next revision.
-triplot- needs to play
with a number of observations somewhere between
2 and 3 times the number of labels plotted.
This doesn't usually bite except with very
small datasets. It is a consequence of the way that labels
and grid lines are implemented by placing the
information in temporary variables.
In your case the labels will be 0 20 40 60 80
100, so you need to -set obs- to 16 or more.
You don't need to add data.
