> Yes, but this is a particularly complex package and the demos are an
easy way to come up to speed. However, there is nothing that

guess you could leave it up to the user to figure it out (as I did) and
wait for the tickets to come in saying the demos are broken. :-) I'll
leave it up to you.
What exactly would you write in the notes?
I remember my first experience from windows. One runs the exe, uses
File->Open and it opens at location where the program is installed, so one
just needs to pick the folder `demo` and then `all.dem` (or any other file
for that matter). But I don't know how to replicate that user experience
on Mac lacking a standalone Gnuplot.app (which would require a tiny bit of
Qt expertise to write a Qt gui with "built-in" "terminal" to resemble the
behaviour in windows).
