This reminds me: there is an undocumented command for printing
the current graph (i.e. for showing a Print(er) dialog):
 	screendump
This, however, works for the "windows" terminal only, otherwise
gnuplot says
 	screendump not implemented

Currently:
- Windows terminal has icons to:
 	- print the graph
 	- save it as EMF
- OS/2 pm terminal has menu item for:
 	- print the graph
- Qt has a tiny arrow with a menu for:
 	- print the graph
 	- export the graph to png, svg, image

Some ideas:
- The screendump command could work for Qt as well.
- This command should be documented.
- Cannot wxt have the same export/print icons as Qt?
- Generalize it as "screendump <terminal name>"?
