Perhaps I should be asking PLPlot folks instead of this list, but...
Eager to try out alternatives, I apt-got (Debian testing/unstable)
everything related to plplot and Octave just to see how it compares
with the standard (slightly non-free) gnuplot interface.
Seems to work fine, except that when I closed the test plplot window
that Octave opened, plplot complained about explicit kill or x-server
shutdown, segfaulted, and Octave core-dumped:
octave:1> toggle_plplot_use
Use PLplot: on
octave:2> x = -pi:0.1:pi;
octave:3> plot(x,sin(x))
#Closed the plplot window here, which displayed with no problems.
octave:4> plot(x,sin(x))
#Tried plotting the same thing again, but...
X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).
warning: broken pipe -- some output may be lost
panic: Segmentation fault -- stopping myself...
attempting to save variables to `octave-core'...
save to `octave-core' complete
Segmentation fault
Also, looks like the X11 driver for plplot doesn't redraw the window.
I suppose this is a problem with precisely this driver.
Can anyone suggest a fix?
