.../docs/README  explains the format of gnuplot.doc
But there is no provision for bulleted lists.  I agree with you that
it would be useful, but it would have to be added to all of the 
various doc2XXX.c conversion programs.

That's backwards.  gnuplot.doc is used to generate gnuplot.tex.
I suppose you could add a search-and-replace filter in doc2tex.c,
but it would probably be simpler to run sed 's/ TeX/ \\TeX/' on
the output. You could add it as an extra line in the Makefile rule
for gnuplot.tex
