Re: wxt terminal in windows hangs

[Tatsuro M. <tma...@ya...>]

Hello

I have gotten the netbook recently. The OS is windows 7 starter.

I have installed gnuplot into C:\Progaram Files as an administrator.
I have also install winhelp32 for window 7.

The wxt terminal and help works without problem.

For help file, the below might helps you.
