[Orgmode] Re: [SOLVED] Gnuplot

Dumb, dumb, dumb.

org-plot or gnuplot-mode must have been configured to look in /usr/bin. Though /usr/local/bin was in my path, it suddenly worked when I added a symlink in /usr/bin. Uninstalling gnuplot, re-configuring with --prefix=/usr, and reinstalling fixed everything.

Hi,


Perhaps some silly clarification. I read through the org-mode manual for using gnuplot and have some unanswered questions:

### Setup ###
- I've installed gnuplot via ./configure, make, and make install
--- seems like it sent to /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp
--- most of the rest of emacs lives in /usr/share/emacs
--- Do I need to specifically add this path, or does emacs check both?

- I have the following in .elisp:
--- (autoload 'gnuplot-mode "gnuplot" "gnuplot major mode" t)
--- (autoload 'gnuplot-make-buffer "gnuplot" "open a buffer in gnuplot mode" t)

- I've installed gnuplot-mode by putting the two .elc files generated in .elisp/site-lisp, which is already in my load path

- org-plot is already present according to word (indeed when doing M-x org-plot and then tab, I see four options

- I've downloaded org-plot.org from worg


### Issues ###
- When I start emacs and go to a #+Plot line and execute M-x org-plot/gnuplot the first time, the minibuffer reads:
--- gnuplot-mode 0.6.0 (gnuplot 3.7) -- report bugs with "M-x gnuplot-bug-report"
--- nothing else happens... what is supposed to happen?

- If I execute it (M-x org-plot/gnuplot) again anywhere in the file (same table or another), the minibuffer reads:
--- searching for program: no such file or directory, gnuplot

- If I switch to the *gnuplot* buffer, I see this in the minibuffer:
--- (Comint: no process)

What am I missing?


Thanks!
John
