Re: Slackware 14.0, problem compiling with wxt terminal for gnuplot 4.6, while OK for 4.4.4

[Mikhail K. <mko...@gm...>]

Thanks for suggestions, Ethan, i shall give it a try.

yes i do get a compiler when executing "c++" or "g++", like:

$ c++ --version
c++ (GCC) 4.7.1
[snip]
$ g++ --version
g++ (GCC) 4.7.1
[snip]

on my system "c++" is a symlink to "g++", and "g++" is a symlink to the 
actual compiler binary:

$ ls -l `which c++`
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Dec 24 23:45 /usr/bin/c++ -> g++*
$ ls -l `which g++`
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Dec 24 23:45 /usr/bin/g++ -> g++-gcc-4.7.1*
$ ls -l `which g++-gcc-4.7.1`
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 542132 Jun 20  2012 /usr/bin/g++-gcc-4.7.1*

thanks again
Mikhail
