Here's some ideas on how you might handle it:

I don't know if gnuplot supports conditional structures or 
I/O... so that would be one way.  Or possibly spit out all 
of: TimingN.plot, TimingN-pdf.plot, TimingN-svg.plot, etc.

Another way would be to output a Python or Perl script to 
drive gnuplot (either by generating scripts or through 
something like popen2).

What I'm about to do is patch my local jack2 to use SVG... 
which would be another option -- just pick a vectored format 
that is known to be portable.

My preference:  a single python script that allows me to 
plot any of the 5 graphs to the screen or to a file in any 
format that my installation of gnuplot supports.

HTH,
