Re: octave & hpc

[Henry F. Mollet]

I run Gnuplot from within Octave. Octave calls Gnuplot, which in term calls
AquaTerm by default (I don't have to open it) and does the first and all
subsequent plots in a window titled "Figure 0". If I need a new AquaTerm
window, I use gset term aqua 1 (2,3 ...) at the octave prompt or within a
script.

I'm interested to have a binary installation for Jaguar.
