Here's some odds and ends I see when looking through the latest CVS.

To get 'all.dem' to run requires that the binary files be built.  That means a "make all" is required in the demo directory.  Is there a reason building the binary files were left out of the general build process?  Do they fail on some systems?  Maybe put a note in demo/Makefile why they are left out.

There appears to be a new multiline title, which is nice.  However, the multiline title illustrating the example appears to linger and reappear on occassion.  When running all and getting image.dem the line "Same plot with a multi-line title\nshowing adjustment of plot area\n to accommodate it" shows up on top of other titles.  It happens in multiplot mode...  Try doing

load 'layout.dem'
load 'image.dem'

or

load 'layout.dem'
load 'multiplt.dem'

Attached is a patch that fixes a strange line in gplt_x11.c that messes up highlighting in gvim; it appeared to have incorrect parentheses but somehow managed to compile and run.  Don't know how.  The patch makes highlighting correct.
