Re: New version of gnuplot broke my right labels

@Mark While I'm not aware `.set y2label` to be a syntax accepted by gnuplot, I
found the test script below -- without the leading period -- worked fine from
the Bash by either `gnuplot ./test.spt`, or `gnuplot-qt ./test.spt`.  The test
run gnuplot 6.0.2 as currently provided by Linux Debian 13/trixie which for
now (still) is branch testing.

If an interactive GUI isn't a requirement for you, could the installation of a
second (i.e., additional) Linux distribution equally be an option for you?  Or
one which lives in a USB thumbdrive, thanks to e.g.,
[rufus](https://rufus.ie/)?

According to Debian's tracker,[1] Ubuntu 24.10 and future 25.04 currently
package version 6.0.0.  However, repology.org[2] mentions for instance Devuan
(unstable), a Debian relative, equally set to gnuplot 6.0.2.
