After install, I've 'sudo mv'ed the Gnuplot.app to places other
than /Applications/, and it seems it still works fine.

Since the startup script properly sets the environment variables,
the help file gnuplot.gih and the prologue files for postscript
terminal are correctly found even if I move the Gnuplot.app. Great!

Isn't it possible to make a dmg from which users can drag and drop
Gnuplot.app to anywhere they want?


One minor problem. If I run
gnuplot> help
and type 'q', then 'Help topics available:' is shown, but
it does not include 'terminal'. I don't now why. But
gnuplot> help terminal
still works. But in 'Subtopics available for terminal:', 'aqua'
is missing but 'x11' exists. And
gnuplot>help aqua
does not work.

Maybe a slightly old version of gnuplot.gih is included?
