Thanks! I cannot reproduce my recipe anymore on master. The dumb
terminal is correctly used.

However, I am not sure if your fix is going to work on gnuplot ver. <3.
calc-graph-plot has the following lines:

((>= calc-gnuplot-version 3)
		     "dumb")

In theory, if someone is still using such an antique gnuplot version and
also compiled it without x11 support, "dumb" terminal may not be a good
fallback. It is very unlikely though.

Best,
Ihor
