I've been hoping to get plplot to work with octave2.1.57 (Only choices of Octave currently available from octave.org are 2.0.17 and 2.1.57) My attempts with plplot5.3.0 have been not quite productive (results below) Am I doing something wrong? Or is there a patch to 5.3.0 to make it work. If not, are there currently publically available releases of both octave and plplot that work together in harmony?
The dubuious results of my labor:

Return true if the expression EXPR is a structure and it includes
an element named NAME. The first argument must be a structure and
the second must be a string.
