I'm sorry about that. Yes, the syntax change is my fault, but it won't happen again. If I wanted to support \useGNUPLOTgraphic[sin][1,3][width=.7\textwidth] and alike, the curly braces didn't fit in so nicely. The module has initially been part of ConTeXt (Hans has written most of it at the beginning), but it was easier to develop it as a module once I started writing metapost code for the dedicated terminal etc. I have removed the faulty examples a few days ago (just didn't upload the new version yet). I was trying to write code in such a way that curly braces would work as well for backward compatibility, but failed to do so (the code is there, but only half of it works). However, all of these changes have happened rather early in the process and won't happen again. Moreover, it would be nice to get the TikZ terminal working with ConTeXt (I need to find some time for it, and then finally convince the gnuplot developers to include it into the binary).
