Thank you for pointing out my packaging error. I have corrected it.

I'm not a latex user so that I would not like to supports lua terminal on windows binaries at the
moment because I additionally need to build lua program on windows.  On cygwin-1.7, lua is now
supported so that I am now trying build it but without success yet as shown in the following

However, you can use lua terminal if you use another cvs binary of gnuplot for windows provided by
Prof. Kakuto.

Please go
http://www.ring.gr.jp/pub/text/TeX/ptex-win32/w32/

and download gnuplot-45pl0w32.zip.

BTW, Kakuto's binary may not support the cairo based terminals (pngcairo and pdfcairo) and the wxt
terminal.
