I tried to follow your example but no luck. I have made up
a mini-example. Two data files, left.dat:

0.0 0.0
0.0 1.0
1.0 1.0
1.0 0.0
0.0 0.0

and an identical file right.dat (OK, I could have used just
the one), and this script:

gnuplot << eoi
set term postscript enh eps 20
set output 'leftright.eps'
unset key
set size square             # ??
set multiplot layout 1, 2
set lmargin screen 0.05
set rmargin screen 0.45
set bmargin screen 0.05
set tmargin screen 0.95
plot 'left.dat' w l lt 1
set lmargin screen 0.55
set rmargin screen 0.95
set bmargin screen 0.05
set tmargin screen 0.95
plot 'right.dat' w l lt 1
quit
eoi

This produces two squares, side by side, with extra
unwanted space at the top (?). The "set size square"
statement makes both plots square. If I leave it out, I get
two identical tall rectangles but I want the the left-hand
one square.

So how do I modify the script to make the square on the right
a rectangle, stretched by a factor, say 1.33, in the x-direction?
