ok. It appears we have similar installations (Leopard, gnuplot 4.2.2,
and Octave 3.0.0).
I suggest we first make sure that gnuplot is using 'aqua' by default.
From the terminal.app, type "gnuplot"
Check the version is 4.2, and that it replies "Terminal type set to
'aqua'"
If the terminal is not set to 'aqua', then type "type set to 'aqua'"
Now, from gnuplot, type "plot sin(x)".
You should get an aquaterm window with a sine function plotted.
Below is what shows up in my terminal window.

gnuplot --version--4.2.2. I obtained octave from Sourceforge.
gnuplot can use AquaTerm.

Peter,
I have some errands to run. I'll be back later.
In the meantime, what do you get when you type
gnuplot --version
from the OS X terminal.app? I get
gnuplot 4.2 patchlevel 2
Also where did you obtain octave from? Sourceforge, Mac/
DarwinPorts, or somewhere else?

Ben,
Octave produces plots using X11. And, yes, I have AquaTerm.app
installed on Applications.

Peter,
Yes, I'm using Fink and am also running Leopard 10.5.1 on Intel.
Does octave produce plots for you at all?
Do you have AquaTerm.app installed?

Ben,
Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, this does not work for me.
Could you show me more details? What is directory name, "sw" ?
Is it 'fink"? I am running Octave on Intel 10.5.1.

How do i let octave 3.0 use gnuplot-aqua?
Peter,
I have the two variables below set in my bash shell
GNUTERM=aqua
GNUTERMAPP=/sw/Applications/AquaTerm.app
On Leopard that should be all you need. Running Tiger, Aquaterm
did not work for me from the Terminal.app. However, it
apparently did for others. To use Aquaterm under Tiger I had
needed to run octave from an xterm window.
