Hi,

Did you specify an output device?  If you want to write out a file of your
plot, you can specify a PostScript output file with the command:

gnuplot > set terminal postscript landscape enhanced mono dashed lw 1
"Helvetica" 14
gnuplot > set output "nameoffile.ps"
gnuplot > plot

You should see nameoffile.ps in the local directory.  Good luck,
