No, no. What happens if you open a console (click on one of the  Cygwin
icons) and type in
 
gnuplot 
 
?
 
Do you get something like
 
 

% gnuplot

        This is gnuplot version 4.0.  Please refer to the documentation

        for command syntax changes.  The old syntax will be accepted

        throughout the 4.0 series, but all save files use the new syntax.
