Currently, the communications between Gnuplot.py and gnuplot are
strictly one-directional, Gnuplot.py -> gnuplot.  There is currently no
way for Gnuplot.py to read values (e.g., elevation and azimuth) back
from gnuplot.

Two-way communications would be interesting for other purposes, too
(e.g., mouse interactions), in the event that somebody is thinking about
maybe implementing it :-)
