Here's what I just put into my .octaverc because I'd rather Octave
just figure out which gnuplot I have than print a warning. This is
essentially what the second patch I proposed does.

[~,s] = system ([gnuplot_binary " -e 'set term' 2>&1 | grep '\\<qt\\>  '"]);
if isempty (s)
   putenv ("GNUTERM", "x11");
else
   putenv ("GNUTERM", "qt");
endif


-e option.  Nice.
