Mac OS X graphics problem solved

[Vic Norton]

Apparently my inability to graph anything from octave had nothing to 
do with octave itself. It appears that my DarwinPorts version of 
gnuplot was missing a way to interface with the Macintosh X11 
application. Some port, eh!

The solution. I simply downloaded a Mac OS X compatible gnuplot 
binary from 
<http://www.lee-phillips.org/info/Macintosh/gnuplot.html>. Besides 
gnuplot it contained the essential file gnuplot_x11 that was missing 
from the DarwinPorts version. Now I can plot things with gnuplot 
without problems. I expect I won't have any difficulty plotting from 
octave though I haven't tried that yet.

Regards,

Vic
