Re: [Maxima-discuss] connection to gnuplot

[Jan H. M. <jan...@ma...>]

Norman, thanks for the help but I think/hope/assume it could be solved without reinstalling maxima. If the following doesn’t work I will follow your advice…:
I deinstalled the default installed gnuplot 4.2 program, started a plot and get the error message

Maxima encountered a Lisp error:
 Couldn't execute "/Applications/Gnuplot.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gnuplot": No such file or directory

Obviously this path has to be changed to make it work. Is there a possibility to change the path from above to „/path to the new gnuplot version“ anywhere in wxmaxima??
And: It seems to me that the maxima-init.mac file will not be recognized…
Any experiences from Mac users on this?
Jan


Jan,
Did you install Maxima and/or wxMaxima via macports as well? When I
build wxmaxima via macports, I automatically get Maxima, xMaxima, and
gnuplot all working together.

Regards,

Norman
