This has probably been asked but I haven't seen it--Is there a version of Gnuplot 2.0 that runs on the NeXT? If not, what modification would be required to get the gnuplot PostScript output to the screen as Display PS? Has (or is) anyone ported Fig 1.4? I'm mainly interested in the TeX aspects to the program. Thanks in advance. -Charlie

Regarding gnuplot... I have compiled and run this on the NeXT. By routing the PS output to a file, you can later preview this file. I don't know of another way to do this. Perhaps, you could set up a pipe directly from gnuplot to the DPS process.

Then (in gnuplot) set term type to 'epsf' then output to file and preview. No info on FIG. -Charlie

Gnuplot2.02 will now compile with the following mod to 'makefile.unx': -DGAMMA=lgamma Also the new version supports the following: gnuplot> set term epsf gnuplot> set output "|Preview" gnuplot> plot blah.... Hopefully the tests of the patch will be complete by the end of the year.
