There's always a chance.  There are no plans for a GUI right now,
inside the project, and I'm not sure we should even try to integrate
any GUI.  For starters, it would be pretty much guaranteed to destroy
one of gnuplot's traditional strong point: maximum portability.

It's been a stated long-term goal for quite a long time now to make life
easier for others to create such a GUI, by splitting gnuplot into a
callable library and a command-line user interface to that library, but
this project keeps getting buried under lots of new features being
implemented...
