I have written a code to run gnuplot.

I can see that gnuplot creates windows and plots, but then it
closes immediately. Anyway to execute the shell code in that
way that it detaches from running process? I do not want window
to be closing.

BTW, as a tutorial to demonstrate use of gnuplot with D, is
there any place I can write an article?
I believe the reason is not because the parent exits, but that by
default gnuplot exits as soon as it has finished executing its
script. It has a `--persist` option that should prevent that.
