Hmm, did you consider to do a plot with the 'smooth acspline' option
(instead of 'with lines') and to redirect the data with 'set table
"filename"' into a file? Maybe the file format will be a bit unexpected
(gnuplot doesn't output multiple columns, but blocks stacked above each
other, but if you know the number of your data points, this should be a
minor problem).

Anyway, doing this via an external script or program seems to be much
more convenient to me.

HTH,
