What you see happens if your "~/.gnuplot" contains a line that says
"set term x11" and your program doesn't give "gnuplot -d" to skip
the initialisation file.

If you have a binary that uses x11 as its default terminal (the
compiled-in default), it recognises if it is started in an
environment without an x11 server (text mode console or so) and
starts with terminal "unknown".

That's different from the other interactive terminals, which only
give an error when you try to actually plot on them.

Hth.
