Hi,
I recently ported Octave successfully but there are some things which
I don't understand. My understanding is that Aquaterm is a dependency
of octave and that it would be installed as a part of theh Octave
port. In fact, when I tried to port Octave the first time it failed
because I had Aquaterm installed previously. After deleting Aquaterm
(and all files relating to it) manually, the porting of Octave was
successful. However, I don't seem to be able to call Aquaterm. A
number of files relating to Aquaterm was ported along with Octave
however. Right now I am plotting via X11 but would like to switch to
plotting via Aquaterm since it produces better looking plots.

in your .profile, .bashrc, .xinitrc or what ever shell startup
script you are using, be sure that GNUTERM is set to "aqua"
set GNUTERM=aqua
Ben
I tried the following:
In .bashrc:
export GNUTERM=aqua
and in .profile
# Make aqua the default
export GNUTERM=aqua
##
# Your previous /Users/robert/.profile file was backed up as /Users/
robert/.profile.macports-saved_2008-11-20_at_19:39:45

export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH
# Finished adapting your PATH environment variable for use with

When I try to plot in Octave I get the following message:
Unknown or ambiguous terminal name 'aqua'
Then a long list of invalid gnuplot commands
