The reason for this is simply that the plot is shown but the script just ends
and closes the plot (probably so fast that you did not see the window appear
at all). Usually I add a pause statement at the end of the script (one has to
press a key to stop octave, it does not close automatically).
For example
#!/usr/local/bin/octave -qi
plot(1:10)
pause
