It is weird... Under normal circumstances, the .ps file should have been generated in current folder. Please carefully check current folder, if indeed no any new file was generated, please boot up gnuplot first, then manually copy each command in the RDGscatter.gnu into the gnuplot console, and carefully check the prompt shown on screen to try to identify the reason.

BTW: I am using gnuplot 5.2.2, if your version is significantly different to mine, please try 5.2.2.

Dear prof Tian
Thank you for response and tried using demo in youtube link. I used latest version of multiwfn and eventhough the cmd is executed .ps file of coloured scatter plot is not generated . I have attached screen shot of the cmd I used for your perusal.

The way of using this script is wrong.

Please make sure that your are using the latest version of Multiwfn, and then follow below video tutorial, in which illustration of using gnuplot to plot the scatter map is given.
