[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #48474] [mxe-octave] enable better supported gnuplot terminals

[Markus Mützel]

Follow-up Comment #92, bug #48474 (project octave):

@Tatsuro: I managed to cross-compile gnuplot with support for the tikz
terminal. Please see the attached changeset.

Unfortunately, it doesn't work as smooth as I hoped for:

>> graphics_toolkit gnuplot
>> plot([0 1])
>> print test -dtikz
error: __gnuplot_drawnow__: the gnuplot terminal, "tikz", is not available
error: called from
    __gnuplot_drawnow__ at line 50 column 9
    __gnuplot_print__>local_drawnow at line 232 column 5
    __gnuplot_print__ at line 114 column 9
    print at line 692 column 14


However, if I set a stop point in line 40 of __gnuplot_drawnow__ and wait for
the additional window to appear before I continue, it seems to work:

>> dbstop in __gnuplot_drawnow__ at 40
ans =  40
>> print test -dtikz
>>


Tested on the default branch.

I also try to attach the files that you should be able to drop in the mingw64
folder of an existing installation.
