Thanks you all for the help, it helped me started, however I still got a
list of issues. I typed them on the end of this email. I hope somebody
can help me out. I added some plot images in the attachment

Kind regards,

quit();

1. does somebody knows how to get the names of the axes automaticly on
the right places (end of the axes)
2. does somebody knows how to get the zeros to disapear
3. does somebody knows how to get fuction description to apear as title
in the plot
4. does somebody knows how to get fuction description to become the name
of the outputfile
5. does somebody knows how to get multiple fuctions in one plot with
diffrenc collors and a clear legend
6. does somebody knows how to get multiple windows with gnuplots so I
can run a batch and popup mutiple windows

I added some plot images in the attachment
