[PATCH] tools: mm: Added modern version of shell quote and a stranza for required command check

[Bhaskar Chowdhury <unixbhaskar@gmail.com>]

Three things precisely:

Replaed backquote with dollar-parentheses ...that is modern way of quoting in
shell script.

Added a stranza of missing/required command for the operation, in this case
gnuplot and that too in the command shell path.

And lastly, command with -v print the path of command i.e location for the
command to be executed.
