Whatever is available as options to the print command.  But if you use
gnuplot-specific options, then you are tying your code to gnuplot, and
that will likely break in the future.

Yes.

If you are using __gnuplot_raw__ only, then you might as well be using

  plot_stream = popen ("gnuplot", "w");
  fprintf (plot_stream, ...);
  ...
  pclose (plot_stream);
