When I enter next three lines in gnuplot 4.4.0,
  set output 'item.ps'
  set terminal postscript
  test
a file item.ps is created, which when viewed via 
  gv item.ps
shows a page including a chart of 32 line types and symbols.
I don't have aqua installed.

[Not directly related to your question, but to some kind of bug:
  gnuplot> set terminal aqua
                      ^
         unknown or ambiguous terminal type; type just 'set terminal' for a list

  gnuplot> test
