Ah, finally we get to know what that "Michael's pgnuplot" you've been 
talking about actually is.

It's not pgnuplot at all.  It's actually a native console version of the 
real program.  To reduce confusion, such a version should really be 
called "gnuplot" (no leading "w", nor "p").

For no particular reason other than that apparently nobody on the
gnuplot team felt comfortable enough committing such a major change to
the MS Windows portion of the code --- we simply have no-one with
sufficient programming skills on that forsaken platform (and available
free time) to do it.

About the best option to change that would be volunteers to work on that 
area of the code.
