The wxt terminal may have some advantages to windows term so that Michael has been using wxt terminal
on windows, I suppose.

setenv("GNUTERM", "win") in octaverc was suggested in gnuplot ML by me.

I intend to show the above as a temporally avoiding way.

(Plese do not write GNUplot and write  'gnuplot' because 'gnuplot' is not under GPL.(GNU Public
License).)

Did you tried octave 3.0.3 on msvc?

The suggestion I made in guplot ML was not appropriate.
The best place is octave-dev list because octave for windows uploaded on the Octave-Forge web space. 

I also send this mail also to
octave-dev <octave-dev at lists.sourceforge.net> 

If you do not subscribe octave-dev list, please subscribe first.
