As a result of some experiments, I think this problem comes from the
command of gnuplot and its timing on plot window.
I did the following script.
plot(1:10);pause(5);plot(1:10);
When one of plot window command ("m" or "e") is issued during pause,
hang-up does not happen.
When no plot window command is issued during pause, then the plot
window command is issued after the end of 2nd plot(1:10) command,
hang-up happens.
However, this workaround is very inconvenience...

I also have same problem on Octave 3.2.4 for XP. It happens always for wxt
and windows terminal.
The details in case of wxt terminal are as follows;
1. Type "plot(1:10)" on Octave.
2. Plot window is popped up, however no buttons are appeared on the window.
3. The window couldn't be moved for a several seconds.
4. After a several seconds, the window can be moved. However, the contents
of the window is wiped out and nothing is displayed.
5. All of built-in command of gnuplot can't be used. No response. Hanged up.
6. Type "plot(1:10)" on Octave again, the plot appears correctly.
7. However, once type the built-in command on plot window (ex. "m" or "e"),
no response. Then gnuplot window is hanged up.
- I have applied the patch for some issues ("oct2mat" and "ginput.m"
problem)
- I have already confirmed that the "gnuplot.exe" in the Octave\bin
directory can worked correctly when it is run individualy.
- At first, this problem was found on my office PC. However, same phenomena
was happened on my private PC. My office one is Dell, and private one is
ThinkPad.
- On Octave-3.1.5, same phenomena happen. On Octave-3.0.3, no problem found.
Please give me any idea to avoid this problem...
If you need more information, please let me know.

Nobuhiko Wasa

I have just the same error with Window7 : the function PLOT works well, but do not produce any new window, as indicated on screen image 1 : .Then, I issue a PRINT command : the graphic windows opens... and freeze (with the "not responding" message from Windows : see image 2 below).. The file with the z.png is correctly created in response to PRINT (Z.PNG').
GNUPLOT works perfectly, executing demos... (the demos are coming from the distribution, but I use the GNUPLOT.EXE in the OCTAVE directory) Any solution ?
