Hi, Octavers,
I am new to octave. I just installed octave and octave-forge by installing
cygwin in windows xp.
I can run octave and do calculations. But the plots can't be displayed.
I did see a "gnuplot.exe" process in task manager though.
Try starting an x terminal first by typing "startx" into the cygwin command
window before starting octave. Then, start octave in that x terminal. Then
you should be able to do your plots.
