Aquaterm launched (the icon appeared in the dock) and as before nothing happened. It seems that gnuplot is not able to connect to Aquaterm. How do I proceed from here? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----- gnuplot> set term aqua Terminal type set to 'aqua' Options are '0 title 'Figure 0' size 846 594 fname 'Times-Roman' fsize 14' gnuplot> test 2004-11-19 12:32:56.277 gnuplotx[762] Warning: Logging at level 4 2004-11-19 12:32:56.289 gnuplotx[762] Launching server... 2004-11-19 12:32:56.605 gnuplotx[762] Waiting... 9 2004-11-19 12:32:57.605 gnuplotx[762] Waiting... 8 2004-11-19 12:32:58.604 gnuplotx[762] Waiting... 7 2004-11-19 12:32:59.604 gnuplotx[762] Waiting... 6 2004-11-19 12:33:00.603 gnuplotx[762] Waiting... 5 2004-11-19 12:33:01.603 gnuplotx[762] Waiting... 4 2004-11-19 12:33:02.602 gnuplotx[762] Waiting... 3 2004-11-19 12:33:03.602 gnuplotx[762] Waiting... 2 2004-11-19 12:33:04.601 gnuplotx[762] Waiting... 1 2004-11-19 12:33:05.601 gnuplotx[762] Could not connect ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- Thanks, Rahul On Nov 19, 2004, at 5:07 AM, Per Persson wrote: > Sounds like you may have multiple versions of AquaTerm and/or gnuplot > installed.
