Hi,
in plot2d and plot3d, if the user does not change the default gnuplot
terminal,
the gnuplot preamble will start with the command "set term pop", which
is supposed to reset the terminal to the default used for the system.
That's how we manage to use AquaTerm in the Mac, X11 or wxt in Linux,
and whatever Windows or other systems like.
If Mario is reading this thread, he might be interested in using the
same method in draw and draw3d.
Regards,
Jaime
