Just the same way you would do it with normal plots.

Please be more specific.  *How* does it fail to work?  One thing to be
careful about: you'll want to re-set 'set size' and 'set origin' to their
original values before you 'set term post ; set output ; set multiplot'

'Using mouse' how, on what platform?

Not very easily.  You may need a dummy plot at full size, or at least
a 'set label' command given in 'screen' coordinates carefully fiddled
to just the right position.

Because the concept of a "multiplot page" doesn't exist in current 
gnuplot.  It's called a multiplot because every single plot works just
the same way as a normal plot outside multiplot mode.

Again: what platform?
