I use X11 xterm instead of Terminal. My default set up is to use AquaTerm.
So therefore, when in X11 xterm I use gset term x11 to get the xGnuplot
window for the plots. Probably should be xgnuplot rahter than xGnuplot but
that's the title of the plot window. You probably also need export
DISPLAY=:0.0 in your .bashrc and/or .bash_profile.
