The mistake was actually that the command, issued implicitly by 
the GUI, was not recorded completely.  It should read

gnuplot <name> --time-series --with-lines

(or, since options may be shortened so long as they are unique:

gnuplot <name> --time --with-l )

This command, issued in the console, will do what you want.
