Re: GNUplot



Hi, I don't know what is wrong with Apple's X11 or with fink or fink commander, things weren't what I expected to be.

Anyhow, I removed the gnuplot that I installed (the binary) using fink commander. And tried Markian Hlynka's suggestion, ie. using Lee Philippe's binaries. It still works for Terminal.app, but when I tried to use it under Apple's X11, it could not find the program because the binaries from philippe's site install into /usr/local/bin .

So since I'm lazy to think to fix up a link to the program from X11, I just copied gnuplot and gnuplot_x11 into /sw/bin and voil`, it works in both Apple's X11 and Terminal.app

The funny thing is that the binary is suppose to use aquaterm for graphic display, but when run under Apple's X11, it uses another term which I have no idea what's called.

Anyway, it works now. BUT I have a question, what happens when i need to upgrade gnuplot in the future?

fink commander / fink is pretty cock-up (singaporean version of screw-up), I mean gv under X11 is not working very well neither! I don't know why, but when I tried to zoom out, the pages fail to reappear properly. Why? I installed it using fink commander as usual.

thanks

Not true.  I installed the binary package, and it does include the x11
driver.  But then there was a new binary fink release quite recently,
wasn't there...

 "The binary package does not include the x11 driver. Did you

build the x11 driver"
