If your version of gnuplot supports it (>= 3.8, I think...), you can have some mouse zooming functionality.  From octave:

 octave:1> __gnuplot_set__ mouse
 octave:2> plot(1,1)

Now you can double click in the plot window to copy the current mouse coordinates to the X buffer.  The middle button will paste the text coordinates into a document or terminal window.  The right mouse button can select a region for zooming.  The middle button places a point at the cursor.

In older version of octave, the syntax is:

 gset mouse

Just thought this might come in handy!
