Try

  plot (t, x, t, z)
  gset term gif
  gset output "foo.gif"
  replot

The plot command uses a series of

  plot <line 1>
  replot <line2>
  ...
  replot <lineN>

commands, which may not do the right thing for all terminal drivers.
Octave's replot command just asks gnuplot to perform a replot
operation, which should result in all the current lines going to one
plot.
