Re: Octave.app for MacOSX released

[Norm Hecht]

Thomas,

I applied the patch (by hand, I couldn't get the patch command to
do it), and tried plotting.  I got the ASCII plot again, typed
getenv("GNUTERM") and found out it was blank, even though the
shell thought it was set.

I then used putenv("GNUTERM", "aqua"), and got a plot, along with
this error message: "line 0: undefined variable: title".  I didn't
get the error when I did a second plot, though.

I put the putenv() command in my octaverc so it's automatically
applied now.  Any ideas on how to get rid of the first-plot error?
