The first thing is to get the software package gnuplot.  For some odd
reason, it is not on the BDI CD.  I got an executable version as an
RPM file from a Red Hat 6.2 CD set.  You can also download the
compilable source code, but I had some problems with this.

Once you have gnuplot installed, you click on settings, then logging
and a new dialog box appears.  You click on start, make a move, then
click stop, save and then plot, and within a couple of seconds you
will have a plot on the screen from the recorded samples.
