What you're trying to do here is not supported and I'd be very
surprised if it worked. The {...} block for the "gnuplot" command is
intended for adding a title, labels, arrows and so on, not for
creating a multiplot.

To create a custom plot via hansl script the recommended procedure
is:

1) Use the "outfile" command with the --write option to open a
new gnuplot input file.

2) Use "print" or "printf" to send suitable gnuplot commands to the
file.

3) Do "outfile --close"

4) Call gretl's "gnuplot" command with the --input option to process
the file you created.

Trivial example:

<hansl>
outfile myplot.plt --write
printf "set title \"My plot\"\n"
printf "set xrange [0:10]\n"
printf "plot log(x)\n"
outfile --close
gnuplot --input=myplot.plt --output=myplot.pdf
</hansl>
