Octave took over Terminal.app in Mac OS X

[千葉 文浩]

Hello

It is supposed: you use the bash shell; and Octave.app is located in  
Applications folder.

Please try the following commands
$ alias octave="/Applications/Octave.app/Contents/Resources/bin/octave"
$ octave
or
put the following ".bash_profile" on your home directory.
------------------->8------------------------
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ];then
         . ~/.bashrc
fi
PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin
BASH_ENV=~/.bashrc
export BASH_ENV PATH
export GNUTERM=x11
alias octave="/Applications/Octave.app/Contents/Resources/bin/octave"
alias gnuplot="/Applications/GnuPlot.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gnuplot"
------------------->8------------------------
where I use gnuplot with X11. If you want to use gnuplot with  
aquaterm, change
"export GNUTERM=x11"  to "export GNUTERM=aqua".


With regards,
-----------------------
