I have two problems under MacOS. The first is that the fltk-aqua window steals
focus.
Second, if I use gnuplot/aquaterm, the focus problem is fixed, but the windows
never close. When I run Soren't dump_demo's script enough windows are created
that aquaterm / gnuplot eventually crash ... and the script errors out. I can
avoid the crash/error by closing windows as they are created.
Each of these problems mean running the dump_demo's script is effective in
preventing me from doing anything else in parallel.
