    That's why a dedicated terminal would be very usefull. However have a
cross platform interactive terminal probably means either using a
toolkit, which does not seem compatible with gnuplot's current licence (a
pity) or using a dedicated terminal for the platform, wich basically
means reusing the current existing interactive terminals.

    Maybe what we need is more a API for interactive terminals ?

    By the way, I think there should be an alias for the default platform
dependent interactive terminal. Say I want to code a script (Octave for
instance, but it could as well be Gnuplot) that work under various
platforms and switches terminals. If I want to switch back to the
platform specific interactive terminal, how do I call it ?
