Thank you for your quick reply Ben
I got Octave from http://octave.sourceforge.net/ I believe. I
installed
gnuplot from the Extras folder.
After I typed "getenv('GNUTERM')", I got
ans =
gnuplot appears to be installed. It opens in a terminal with the
message
exec '/Applications/Gnuplot.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gnuplot'
followed by information about the version and finally the message
Terminal type set to 'aqua'
However when I type on a terminal which gnuplot I get the message
no gnuplot in /bin /sbin /usr/bin /usr/sbin /usr/local/bin /usr/texbin
I must say that a few months ago, I unsuccessfully tried to fix an
installation of Octave by playing around with the commands sudo,
Aquaterm and X11 following suggestions on the internet. I now have X11
installed.
Thanks again.

Where/how did you obtain octave?
Did you install gnuplot?
If you are not sure, check to see if "gnuplot" is in you
Applications folder.
Open a Terminal window (Terminal is in Applications/Utilities) and
type
"which gnuplot". If you get nothing, and you have the octave.dmg
open it.
You'll find gnuplot.dmg in the Extra's folder.
If gnuplot is on you system, type "getenv('GNUTERM')" in octave's
window and
let us know what happens.
