There was a gui front end to gnuplot, dont remember the exact name, but
I thought it started with gfe. It didn't implement all of the gnuplot
functions, but a sizable set at least. If nothing else it will get you
started. Try searching http://www.freshmeat.net.
Not exactly sure what it is you want gnuplot for, but for 2D plotting,
I use xmgrace, which is the successor to xmgr. Very good package! Just
can't do 3D contour plots. Try it out! You should be able to find it
at freshmeat as well.
