Using windows xp, maxima v 5.13a, and inside XMaxima, I try:
------------------------
%i7) plot2d( x^2 - 5.0, [ x, -5, 5 ], [ gnuplot_preamble, "set
eroaxis" ],
[ gnuplot_term, jpeg ], [ gnuplot_out_file,
"c/work2/root1.jpg" ] ) $
Output file "c/work2/root1.jpg".
---------------------
But no file appears in that directory or elsewhere (as far as I can tell).
Maybe my syntax is wrong?
I have no problem creating *.eps files, replacing "jpeg" with "ps",
and "jpg" with "eps".
