	The fink install of gnuplot 3.7.1-4 works just fine with octave & 
XFree86 under OSX. I would also add that one additional advantage of 
running octave under XFree86 as opposed to AquaTerm is that octave's image(
) command uses imagemagick. Imagemagick sends its output to X11 and does 
not work with Aquaterm (at least not yet anyway).

	Since I wanted to try out Aquaterm,  I have also tried the unstable 
release of gnuplot 3.8. It works just fine too. Either 3.7.1-4 or 3.8 is 
acceptable. Fink makes both available. Gnuplot 3.7.1-4 is the current 
stable release and comes automatically when gnuplot is selected.
