It isn't.  But like basically every tool in the world using text files, 
gnuplot relies on those text files actually looking the way text files 
are supposed to look, on the platform it's running on.

Yes, that means files, particularly their line endings, have to be 
translated if you move them across platforms.  That's in no way specific 
to gnuplot.  It's also the reason why any file transfer tool worth 
having has an option to do the translation as part of the transfer.
