Thanks! There was no man page for ggi_mode, but a brief look at types.h did
the trick.

If on console, I must wait for a key to release the console. If in a
windowing system, I must not, since the plot will be in another window...
And waiting for a key is giving problems on Octave.

Is this a GGI thing? If not, it won't work because GNUplot is being compiled
without any X support, so *compiling* will fail... I would like to be able
to run in X even if in compile-time there were no X-related stuff...
Btw, the Octave ggiGetc problem persists... If someone wants the GGI driver
to test with it I can send it (its very simple).
