refresh

The refresh command produces an exact copy of the latest display. This can be useful, for example, after changing the terminal type, to produce a second copy of a plot in a different graphic format. It differs from the replot command in that it doesn’t replot anything; use of the set command since the previous plot command has no effect on the output. The refresh command is also especially useful in the multiplot environment: it can be used to produce second copies of multiplot pages where there need not necessarily even be any plots; there might perhaps only be textual items and arrows.
