wxt term + osx

[Allin C. <cot...@wf...>]

I've built current CVS gnuplot and wxWidgets 3.0.2 for OS X and most 
things are working fine, but with one puzzling anomaly and I wonder 
if anyone has some insight.

Calling gnuplot with a script argument: the script sets term = wxt, 
puts up a 3D plot, and ends with "pause mouse close". If I do this 
directly from a Terminal window it works fine, and I get to 
manipulate the plot with the mouse.

But if I do the same thing programmatically (using the GLib function 
g_spawn_async) the wxt window appears momentarily, with the plot 
looking OK so far as I can tell, then disappears right away. The 
GLib call seems to be correct; it works as intended on Linux. 
Somehow on OS X the "pause mouse close" isn't preventing the 
termination of the gnuplot process. (No complaints on stderr.)
