At least part of the responsibility for this problem lies in your 
scripts.  They fail to close the output files.  I.e. before you

	set term x11

you should

	set output

to close the PostScript output file.  The fact that the sequence
you used didn't work is a bug in gnuplot, but your scripts are at
least somewhat incorrect, too.
