You can do this in 2.0.9:
* It is now possible to specify a label for lines in the plot key
when using the plot function. For example,
plot (x, y, "-*;sin(x);")
plots y vs. x using the linespoints style and sets the title of
the line in the key to be `sin(x)'

To tell gnuplot's postscript terminal driver to use color, try
gset terminal postscript color
