Both Homebrew and XQuartz need this to work. The problem is related with some incompatibilities with aquaterm and Lion/Mountain lion. If there are any questions, leave a comment. Just start the terminal up and type 'gnuplot'.
#GNUPLOT INSTALL MAC WITH AQUATERM SOFTWARE#
I'll warn you, this installation can take a while (30 minutes) as you download and install all the smaller software packages required.
You will also need the Xcode Command Line Tools if you don't already have them. At that point, it's as easy as typing 'sudo port install gnuplot' in the Terminal. In the past this came installed on OS X, but as of Mountain Lion it is no longer included. Yes, much like Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, I will now deftly disarm the traps so that you may pass freely into the chamber of the Holy Grail 1. It is your fate to run through the gauntlet of Unix dependency hell that is getting open source software to work on a closed source operating system.īut I have good news! Hopefully, I have now exposed all the booby traps that Mountain Lion has set for you, and I've discovered the secret command-line incantations necessary to avoid them. It is able to write those plots to a whole bunch of. In a lot of ways, gnuplot functions like a special purpose programming language used for creating plots. However, if you are in the unfortunate position of needing to implement algorithms and plots in GNU Octave, I pity you. Basically, it is a library with an API with allows various programming languages to display graphics on the screen. 
If you are in the fortunate position to be a lucky owner of a spiffy new Macbook, I salute you! In my humble opinion there could not be a finer breed of computer.
