Octave/x11/aquaterm/gnuplot issue

[Ronald Haynes]

Hi folks, I installed octave (3.2.2) and aquaterm (1.0.1_5)  using macports on mac os x 10.6.4.

When plotting octave loads x11 instead of aquaterm to display the plots.  I would like to use aquaterm.  I have tried setting the GNUTERM and
GNUTERMAPP environment variables in .profile to point to aquaterm but that causes octave to load both x11 and aquaterm when I try to plot and then nothing gets displayed.

How do I ensure octave uses aquaterm only.

BTW:  it works correctly if I install octave from the .dmg rather than using macports.

Best,
R Haynes
