Re: GNU plot

[Tatsuro MATSUOKA]

Hello 

gnuplot> set terminal aqua 1
?????

Your platform is RedHat.  The aqua term is only for Mac OSX.
Apprantly this is an origin of your trouble.
But why ???????

Please try to add

putenv ("GNUTERM", "x11");

in your ...../share/octave/3.0.0\m/startup/octaverc or .octaverc in your home 
directry.


*******************
Octave 3.0.0 is designed to use the gnuplot verion of which is later than 4.2.2.
Now official the latest version official release of gnuplot is 4.2.3.

Therefore Sergei told you "Did you install gnuplot-4.2.3 ?"

I'm not a Linux user but a cygwin user.
I googled the RHEL anf gnplot.
Certainly the rpm distriburion of gnuplot for RHEL is 4.0.0.
So you have to build gnuplot from sourse.
But the dendencies seem old to be rather old for RHEL so that you have build 
dependencies
like gd, freetype, ....

I also found

http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3?stat=3&search=gnuplot&srodzaj=3

Mmmmmmmmmm........................
It seem that RHEL is slow to update for binary packages.


BTW
Please not that gnuplot is not a GNUplot.  There is no relation between GNU 
project and gnuplot.
The history of gnuplot is very long and the confusing naming is quite 
accidental.  
Please care that gnuplot is not a GNU so that idea of copyright is different 
from that of GPL.  

Regards

Tatsuro
