title: Octave + GNUPlot + Aquaterm + Mac OS 10.6
body: <p>I'm attempting to do all of my MatLab based homework assignments in Octave - the opensource representation of MatLab. </p>
  
  <p>However, I'm having problems getting graphs to plot and I think it's a simple linking problem. I am running: 
  -Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6)
  -Octave 3.2.2
  -Aquaterm 1.0.1
  -GNUPlot 4.0</p>
  
  <p>Here is an example of the errors that I am getting from my shell:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Mr-Buffalo:~ buffingtonr$ gnuplot

  <p>I don't have the unix foundation necessary to trouble shoot this. Any suggestions/fixes?</p>
