What Emacs command or function do "plot commands" invoke?  What window
did you expect them to pop: an Emacs window or an Octave window (or
some other window)?

IOW, you assume too much Octave-specific knowledge in your questions.
Unless there's someone here who uses Octave, I doubt that you will get
any help, unless you tell more about the commands you invoke, what you
expect from them, how they work outside Emacs, etc.

FWIW, gnuplot works on MS-Windows when invoked from Calc to plot
functions and data, but for that, the pgnuplot program needs to be
invoked rather than gnuplot.
