Hmm... The windows version doesn't use that icon.  It has it's own pair of
icons, one for the main (text) window, another for the graph. See
gnuplot/src/win/*.ico.  I guess it might be a good idea to use the same
icon on all platforms that use icons, i.e. Windows, OS/2 and (I guess)
MacOS.  

X11 only uses icons in the contexts of KDE or Gnome, AFAIK, and I'm not
sure it's possible or easy to export an icon without making gnuplot_x11
dependant on either Gtk or Qt.  Any experts know better?

OTOH, an icon isn't quite the same as a mascot.  That'd have to be more
along the lines of the BSD daemon, Tux the Linux penguin, or Mozilla's
lizard.
