Hello
Sorry, I first submit backward saying for the ginput problem.
*********************
I cannot use ginput on octave 3.2.3
First I fixed __go_draw_figure__.m in
....\Octave\3.2.3_gcc4.4.0\share\octave\3.2.3\m\plot
according to
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/fea3d4868692
However, I have modified the above, it does not work with the waring
octave:1> putenv("GNUTERM","wxt")
octave:2> plot (1:10)
octave:3> [x,y,b] = ginput(1)
warning: implicit conversion from real matrix to real scalar
warning: implicit conversion from real matrix to real scalar
warning: implicit conversion from real matrix to real scalar
warning: implicit conversion from real matrix to real scalar
warning: implicit conversion from real matrix to real scalar
warning: implicit conversion from real matrix to real scalar
Have to I modify any others for octave-3.2.3 ?
However, octave-3.2.4 built myself with the instruction by me, it worked
correct.
octave:1> putenv("GNUTERM","wxt")
octave:2> plot(1:10)
octave:3> [x,y,b] = ginput(1)
x = 4.4521
y = 4.4061
b = 1
The recent cvs version gnuplot.exe for windows which is distributed the below,
in which, the pause
mouse bug of gnuplot.exe is fixed.

With it, ginput also works correct
***********************
As Matthias said, the ginput is slow. It take several seconds.
On octave-3.2.4 on cygwin, ginput responds immediately.

What Matthias said is right.
If the task priority of the gnuplot executed from raised by one rank by the
task manager.
ginput works immediately.
Therefore I add sleep(0.05) in the __gnuplot_ginput__.m as
--- __gnuplot_ginput__.m.orig 2010-02-17 15:02:52 +0900
+++ __gnuplot_ginput__.m 2010-02-18 19:08:28 +0900
@@ -76,7 +76,7 @@
k = 0;
while (true)
k++;
-
+ sleep(0.05); # sleep a moment is required for windows
## Notes: MOUSE_* can be undefined if user closes gnuplot by "q"
## or Alt-F4. Further, this abrupt close also requires the leading
## "\n" on the next line.
The above makes ginput respond as expected.
