Would it be hard to implement in draw something like  the [plot_format, 
openmath]  which exists in plot2d and plot3d?

These keep the windows, and have some nice command options on the graph 
canvas (like print to file --- I know this can be done in draw with  
'terminal=' but it is nice to have a quick version instead of having to 
retype the command for draw.
