Thanks a lot. I've learnt a lot from the example, it's only that in

Hello Mojca,
if you are using Windows, you can install MinGW, it's free and bash is
included.
OK, that could be file for me and maybe for two others, but this can't
be a general solution. (Beginners wouldn't install it and the skilled
ones have linux anyway.)
that makes me a beginner
So my question for gurus remains: how to write a macro, so that
\startGnuplotinclusions
set title "trigonometry"
\stopGnuplotinclusions
\startGnuplot
plot sin(x)
\stopGnuplot
\startGnuplot
plot cos(x)
\stopGnuplot
would result in one file with
set terminal postscript
set output "filename1"
set title "trigonometry"
plot sin(x)
and the other one with
set terminal postscript
set output "filename2" # If too complicated, the filename may remain the same
why should it change
an option is to collect *all graphic data* and do it in one run, in
which case we can gain some speed
set title "trigonometry"
plot cos(x)
% output=pdf

\starttext
\startGNUPLOTinclusions

set terminal postscript
\stopGNUPLOTinclusions
\startGNUPLOTgraphic
plot sin(x)
\stopGNUPLOTgraphic
\startGNUPLOTgraphic
plot cos(x)
\stopGNUPLOTgraphic
\stoptext
i leave it to you to figure out why i don't get output
