was emacs, now gnuplot

I will check the various suggested options to the terminal-only version

that came with distribution.

The thing that had me wondering if I was missing an environment

variable for this emacs was a problem earlier in the day, when through

trial and error and some lucky searching I found I needed to set

export GNUPLOT_DRIVER_DIR=/Applications/GnuPlot.app/Contents/Resources/libexec/gnuplot/4.2

export GNUTERM=x11

after downloading the Oct 2007 binaries for octave-2.9.15:1, which included

binaries for gnuplot as part of that download.

That leads to my next question. I thought I once saw somebody running a

gnuplot version that supported line types with dashing and dot-dash, etc.

I would have assumed this Oct 2007 download would be the latest and greatest,

and the latest and greatest would include better line types... but it does not

seem to.

Does anybody know of a gnuplot that supports these line types in X11

on Mac OS X?

Thanks again

(My eventual goal is to be able to reuse a large library of Matlab code on

my home iMac. My first couple days with this octave and gnuplot version

and some trial Matlab code leads me to believe that while number crunching

and data manipulation seems fine with little code translation, I will be

losing a lot of graphing/plotting features coded into my original Matlab code.)
