Terminals define the type of output you get. eg. "term postscript" will generate
a postscript file. please be aware that the terminal can have arguments attached.
from help term postscript:
     set terminal postscript {landscape | portrait | eps}
                               {enhanced | noenhanced}
                               {defaultplex | simplex | duplex}
                               {fontfile [add | delete] "<filename>"
                                | nofontfiles} {{no}adobeglyphnames}
                               {level1 | leveldefault}
                               {color | colour | monochrome}
                               {solid | dashed}
                               {dashlength | dl <DL>}
                               {linewidth | lw <LW>}
                               {rounded | butt}
                               {clip | noclip}
                               {palfuncparam <samples>{,<maxdeviation>}}
                               {size <XX>{unit},<YY>{unit}}
                               {blacktext | colortext | colourtext}
                               {{font} "fontname{,fontsize}" {<fontsize>}}
