gnuplot 4.2.5 : not interacting properly with aquaterm

[mtd10@…]

The previous version of gnuplot worked okay for me in conjunction with aquaterm, but the latest version has the following problem. When I try to plot a graph – eg via plot sin(x) – gnuplot launches aquaterm but does nothing else, and it hangs on the command line.

I have two systems One is a macbook pro (2 years old), running OS X 10.6.3. The other is an imac (1 year old) running OS X 10.6.2. In both cases I refreshed all my installed ports completely, and in the case of the macbook I tried 2 fresh re-installs.

Works for me on 10.6.3, FWIW.

I imagine it must be working for some people. Originally I was hoping that maybe my laptop had developed an e-aversion to aquaterm that maybe I could track down, so I was well disappointed when installing on my imac to find I got the same behaviour. MTD

in .profile set AQUATERM_PATH to /Applications/MacPorts/AquaTerm.app

I had the same problem. Solution was either a) setting the AQUATERM_PATH or b) removing a second Aquaterm that I installed into the Applications folder, and which seemingly was still 32bit.

OK, so if the issue is multiple Aquaterms on the system, one of which has incompatible archs, then this is basically just a configuration problem which should be solved by setting AQUATERM_PATH.
