Re: mouse on MacOSX/X11

[Henry F. Mollet]

I have to correct my earlier posting. Today using Octave in X11, not
standalone gnuplot, the mouse worked just fine. I.e.:
1. Location of curser in lower left
2. Option click printed location on window
3. Command click gave zooming but don't know how to unzoom.

Not sure why it is working now. Perhaps the computer had to be turned off/on
for needed changes to take effect. If I knew how to save a plot in the
X11/Gnuplot window (but created using Octave, see below), I would have
attached the zoomed figure.

Also, how do I paste text into X11 xTerm window?
