Re: win7: erratic console behaviour after first plot on wxt terminal

[Bastian M. <bma...@we...>]

This seems to be an effect of the event handling: gnuplot seems to wait 
for an event and blocks. Just moving the mouse inside plot window 
terminates the  "waiting" e.g. I will see if I can find the time to 
track this down over the weekend. IMHO this bug is release critical.
