Re: How can I make Octave and Gnuplot work in Leopard?

[alex_dlc]

so i uninstalled octave 3.4.0 and i installed octave 3.2.3 with whatever
version of gnuplot it came with.

i tried to do the same plot i tried with octave 3.4.0 and this time, i didnt
get errors! but nothing showed up. no plot or anything.

i tried to first open x11.app and then gnuplot (by doubleclicking
gnuplot.app) and unlike last time, gnuplot  actually opened with no errors
or crashes. so i was happy atleast that was ok.

with both x11 and gnuplot apps open/running i tried to plot something again,
but i still didnt get the plot or anything else. 

i read somewhere that to make gnuplot work i had to run this command: 
setenv('GNUTERM', 'x11')

after doing this, i tried once more to plot something, and this time the
plot window apeared! 


So now i have Octave v3.2.3 and Gnuplot v4.2.6 working and plotting with
X11. The only quirk is that i have to run the setenv command every time i
start Octave. how can i make it set the enviroment to X11 everytime i start
the program? 


PS: i would still like it if i could
