I don't have any problems with the gnuplot output when I run gnuplot from a
Maxima session within TeXmacs 1.0.7.15. Here's an example I used recently:

plot2d([50, min(375^2/E,750),max(750-E,0),min(22500/E,750),
min(12500/E,750),min(80000/E,750), min(max(10^5*(E-50),0),750),
min(35000/E,750),max(300-E,0)], [E,0.1,750], [gnuplot_preamble,"set terminal
postscript; set output \"Sat25Aug12.eps\";"]);

The above was copied to verbatim from TeXmacs. The output shows up in a nice
gnuplot window outside the TeXmacs window, and does not actually get saved to
the .eps file. So I click on the button at the left end of the gnuplot
toolbar to copy the plot to the clipboard, and then paste it into a KDE
Kolourpaint window.

A very useful point that I discovered by accident is that if you drag the
"handle" in the bottom right-hand corner of the gnuplot window to change the
shape and size of the window, and then close the window, the *next* plot will
come out adapted to the shape and size of the gnuplot window that you just
closed. So after a bit of trial and error, I was able to get the above plot
to appear in a nice square window, with the horizontal and vertical axes of
equal length, as I wanted.
