Went to the fink link, installed, gnuplot is not listed. Followed your gnuplot links above, they lead to a non-existant dot-mac homepage. How did you actually get this to work?

    gnuplot is available from fink. I just installed it using dselect to make sure (see trace that follows).

    (9:14) (twoapple:omalley):omalley -: fink -v
    Fink 0.21.3

    (9:16) (twoapple:omalley):omalley -: gnuplot
    tcsh: gnuplot: Command not found.
    (9:16) (twoapple:omalley):omalley -: sudo dselect

    ( ** Selected gnuplot and install **)

    This is a pre-version of gnuplot 4.0. Please refer to the
    documentation
    for command syntax changes. The old syntax will be accepted throughout
    the 4.0 series, but all save files use the new syntax.
