After a lot of troubles (messing around with -mno-cywing, version 
mismatches) I finally compiled a newer version of the gnuplot that comes with 
my ofw. It includes support for png, jpeg and truetype fonts (gd, libpng, 
freetype, jpeg). I don't know if anyone needs theses features but this was on 
the to-do list for a long time (My dad works a lot with pngs and jpegs).

I'll start working on building a newer octave (so far octave-2.1.42 seems to be 
the safest way to go) with all the usual add-ons.

The new installer script (It's based on NSIS2beta0 and it supports multiple 
languages) is almost finnished too.
