If this refers to the issue of not being able to open a Qt terminal for gnuplot
output, I investigated this a year and a half ago. We opened a Qt bug for it
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-74486 but it has languished.
I'll revisit this issue and see if I can submit a patch for Cygwin's Qt package
or gnuplot or whatever would work. Thanks for the reminder.
