Details

Description:

libcaca provides very nice terminal output for Gnuplot, and even thought it's available in arch, Gnuplot doesn't use it by default unless ./configure --with-caca

Additional info:
* gnuplot 5.2.2-1


Steps to reproduce:

To check if caca output is available, start gnuplot and run `set terminal caca`.

For more details about it, see the following link: https://codeyarns.com/2015/05/11/how-to-use-caca-terminal-of-gnuplot/

I added https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gnuplot-caca as an example of what needs to change.
