Sorry, I'm not using Linux for creating documents or read/write mails.

On Mac OS X, aquaterm (set term aqua) can copy a plot in PDF, and many apps
(Pages, Keynote, MS Office, many drawing/graphics apps, etc.) accept it. If I
paste it to a composing window of Mail.app, it becomes an attachment in PDF.

Probably there are only few gnuplot users on Mac. If so, supporting PDF
clipboard by wxt/qt on Mac would not be a high priority.
Aquaterm works fine and, for most of the cases, enough for me.

But I guess copying a plot in a vector format (SVG ?) would also be useful on
Linux (assuming there are many apps which accept SVG from clipboard).
Or is this already possible?
