That sounds like a great way to go, especially if you already know the Gnuplot 
language.

Dima has made a very nice object-oriented hip interface to Gnuplot, and I have 
modified it extensively in the hope of making it easier to use (though it may 
be a bit top-heavy at this point) - but it remains (of course) single threaded. 
 I'm in the process of fixing some broken things and implementing a more 
complete test suite -- the current version is available from github, and once 
it's fixed to Dima's satisfaction it will hopefully get pushed out to CPAN.
