I've been holding off on this changeset to avoid branching while bugs  
were being fixed for 3.2 ... my delay was also intended to allow the  
gnuplot side to settle on the syntax, which I think is stable now.

As Jaroslav has suggested we move onto 3.3,now seemed like a  
reasonable time to move forward

I've pushed a changeset adding support for gnuplot's TikZ terminal.

Attached is the changeset, a demo script, and the latex doc needed to  
render the result.
