If this refers to the issue of not being able to open a Qt terminal for gnuplot 
output, I investigated this a year and a half ago.  We opened a Qt bug for it
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-74486 but it has languished.

I'll revisit this issue and see if I can submit a patch for Cygwin's Qt package 
or gnuplot or whatever would work.  Thanks for the reminder.
