Re: Octave plot graphics window

Thank you for your reply.  Yes, the warning about "X11 DISPLAY" is exactly what appears.  But I'm working on a stand-alone PC running cygwin.  So there's no "X11 server."  Is there another way to get the octave plots?

something like

octave:2> plot(x,x)
warning: X11 DISPLAY environment variable not set
...

You should start octave inside xterm (and with X11 server running of course ) .
