Plot Does Not Work

[Alan Morris]

Hi,

I recently installed Octave on my MacBook Pro, OS X Snow Leopard.  The first time I tried to plot data I got the following result:

octave-3.2.3:6> plot(x,y)

sh: gnuplot: command not found

error: popen2 (child): unable to start process -- No such file or directory

error: you must have gnuplot installed to display graphics; if you have gnuplot installed in a non-standard location, see the 'gnuplot_binary' function

octave-3.2.3:7> error: called from:

error:   /Applications/Octave.app/Contents/Resources/share/octave/3.2.3/m/plot/__gnuplot_open_stream__.m at line 28, column 44

error:   /Applications/Octave.app/Contents/Resources/share/octave/3.2.3/m/plot/gnuplot_drawnow.m at line 85, column 19

Is gnuplot installed separately?  If so, where can I find it?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Alan Morris
