In addition to the html libraries, there is also parenscript, which
generates javascript from lisp. I think it is intended for webserving,
which would be one way to serve up these svg files.

I assume you mean the gnuplot svg terminal? It appears to be buggy.

set_plot_option([gnuplot_ps_term_command,"set terminal svg"]);
plot2d(sin(x),[x,-%pi,%pi],[psfile,"test.svg"]);

produces an svg file that firefox chokes on and epiphany displays up to
the error on the 2nd last line.

I am using gnuplot 4.4 patchlevel 2.
