Sorry I sent a mail without revising.
Please ignore the first post

I have filed a bug (Feature Request).
 http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?53847

Title
 tikzstandalone support for octave for winodws (gnuplot embeded with octave)



However,

Using external gnuplot that has lua/tikz terminal

*************************************************************
>> gnuplot_binary C:\Programs\gp523-64\bin\gnuplot
>> graphics_toolkit gnuplot
>> fplot ("[cos(x), sin(x)]", [0, 2*pi])
>> print("test.tikz", "-dtikzstandalone")
error: print: unknown device tikzstandalone
error: called from
    __print_parse_opts__ at line 259 column 5
    print at line 322 column 8

>> print("test.tikz", "-dtikz")
## works for tikz but not tikzstandalone
*************************************************************


I executed the same test on 4.4.0 on Ubuntu 16.04 (build myself).

The same error appears 
   error: print: unknown device tikzstandalone

However in  the manual of 4.4,
https://octave.org/doc/interpreter/Printing-and-Saving-Plots.html#Printing-and-Saving-Plots

In the print device,

tikz
tikzstandalone
  Generate a LaTeX file using PGF/TikZ format. 
  The OpenGL-based toolkits create a PGF file while Gnuplot creates a TikZ 
file. 
  The ‘tikzstandalone’ device produces a LaTeX document which includes the TikZ 
file 
  (‘tikzstandalone’ and is only available for the Gnuplot graphics toolkit).


There seems to exist tikz but not tikzstandalone

Is this a known issue?
