Congratulations!

You don’t have to define IO_COL_SEPARATOR if you’re using space as a delimiter. gmt figures that out by itself.

Parameters like IO_COL_SEPARATOR may be set in a line by itself:

gmt set IO_COL_SEPARATOR=tab

or as part of another command:

gmt plot [.....] --IO_COL_SEPARATOR=tab

At least in classic mode. Not sure in modern mode (which you’re using).

gmt begin test_data pdf,png

gmt set IO_COL_SEPARATOR=space

gmt info C:\programs\Anna.txt

gmt plot C:\programs\Anna.txt -Sc0.1c -R14.9440/15.0030/37.6630/38.1000 -JX10c -Bxafg+l"Long" -Byafg+l"Lat"

gmt end show

With these i can plot the point very well.

I controll all file .txt because i see that one data is writen 145.56 and not 14.556
So when i finish i run this script

    gmt begin  test_data pdf,png

    gmt set IO_COL_SEPARATOR=space

    gmt info C:\programs\lat_long.txt    

    gmt plot C:\programs\lat_long.txt -Sc0.1c -R14.9440/15.0030/37.6630/38.1000 -JX10c -Bxafg+l"Long" -Byafg+l"Lat"

    gmt end show 

and show these error:

C:\Users\Anna>gmt begin  test_data pdf,png 

C:\Users\Anna>gmt set IO_COL_SEPARATOR=space 

C:\Users\Anna>gmt info C:\programs\lat_long.txt     
gmtinfo [ERROR]: No data columns to work with - exiting
gmtinfo [ERROR]: Data file only has trailing text. GMT expects numerical columns followed by optional trailing text

C:\Users\Anna>gmt plot C:\programs\lat_long.txt -Sc0.1c -R14.9440/15.0030/37.6630/38.1000 -JX10c -Bxafg+l"Long" -Byafg+l"Lat"
plot [WARNING]: Mismatch between actual (1) and expected (2) fields near line 1 in file C:\programs\lat_long.txt

C:\Users\Anna>gmt end show
PS C:\Users\Anna> 

Why?

I try the solution

The problem is in .txt file

Anna.txt is UFT-8
lat_long.txt is UTF-16
so this is the problem.
Now plot very well.
