My friend wrote a gnuplot wrapper that is a bit cleaner to use called 'feedgnuplot'
https://github.com/dkogan/feedgnuplot
It's in the debian repos so you can pull it if you're in a debian derivative too, like Ubuntu.
This is so cool. It reminds me of Markdown and Mermaid (https://github.com/mermaid-js/mermaid), which can do a similar thing within a plain text file. Keep it up; looking forward to trying it out.
Also:
https://github.com/saitoha/libsixel
contains img2sixel, which lets you dump images to the terminal. It can also do animated GIFs.

https://st.suckless.org/ used to have a circa st-0.8 fork that supported full color sixel graphics, but it seems that specific patch is not in the official list anymore. [1] You can even compose that with the scrollback patch to scroll back in your gnuplots. I use this all the time. In fact, I just have GNUTERM="sixelgd enhanced linewidth 3 fontscale 2 size 1600,900 truecolor" in my environment variables.

There’s an alacritty fork with sixel support[], albeit without vector support.
There’s also kitty that has some improvements over sixel

Looks really great! I love tools that work in the terminal.
I used asciichart in my mortgage-and-investments script for the terminal (shows a nice graph).
