Hello colleague,
first of all it's not a bad idea to raise this as issue on Winston.jl
itself: https://github.com/nolta/Winston.jl/issues
and btw this here looks similar:
https://github.com/nolta/Winston.jl/issues/204
afaik getgc methods are usually located in the drawing libraries (like
Cairo.jl) or gui TKs (like Gtk.jl or Tk.jl).
on my computer (which has a working Winston both TK and Gtk):
> julia> Cairo.getgc
> getgc (generic function with 2 methods)
>
> julia> methods(Cairo.getgc)
> # 2 methods for generic function "getgc":
> getgc(gc::GraphicsContext) at graphics.jl:204
> getgc(c::Canvas) at /home/lobi/.julia/v0.3/Tk/src/tkwidget.jl:444

maybe you need to use a different version (of one of the above).
Wishing a happy day,
Andreas
