Re: Octave.app 3.2.0 for MacOSX

Thanks for the diagnostics.  After running them it was obvious that  
aquaterm wasn't firing up for gnuplot.  Duhhh -- it wasn't installed.   
Installed it and your PPC binary is just fine!  Sorry to waste your  
time ~

BTW if anyone is looking to install aquaterm for PPC from sourceforge,  
the binary is universal, not i386 specific as indicated (according to  
the release notes - and it works fine)

thanks for your time

Stu
