You can use the "native" ginput.m solution for gnuplot 4.x from here:
        http://www.gnuplot.info/links.html

section "Programming interfaces -- bidirectional interaction".

- Could this .m replace that in octave-forge?
- Similarly, zooming by mouse is native in gnuplot 4. Should "gzoom" be
  replaced by waiting for two "pause mouse"?
