Done, and it works from win95.  Even plotting using gnuplot.

Done

The really pleasing thing is that the changes requested:
 - using gnuplot,
 - patching correct MAXIMA_PREFIX into maxima.bat on installation,
 - command line version that works
 - changes to get spaces in directories working
have forced me to understand (parts of) the xmaxima code and allowed me
to remove much of the special case stuff for win95.  

A win all round.
