Ok, I just wanted we make "guideline" binary packages with all docs, demo et
al what should be inside.

Sorry, it was not exact -- there are several of the unimplemented --
according to the TODO file:

  -- rotated text is not supported
        demo/textrotate.dem does not pass correctly
  -- palette colored text is not supported
        demo/textcolor.dem does not pass correctly

and some other items, like
  -- update wgnuplot menus
  -- windows driver does not report font size to windows.trm, thus
     character widht and height are quite useless numbers

These things, if someone contributes them, should be added, right?
(Some people can think of them as bugs, others missing features.)

Maybe I like more winter than spring?
Well, the point is I though gnuplot 4.0 could be released in December, and
now I see how months are passing and passing...
