Hi,
Thanks again for your reply.

This is really nice, I should have thought about it my self.
The only trouble is, it takes much much longer to execute, and mouse
interaction is really slow now.
I guess it's too heavy for my poor graphic card...

Thanks, that's a nice trick

>octave doesn't know about mouse-gnuplot interactions.
shame that would be a really nice feature IMHO.

Also, I've tried installing jhandles. No success at all, even though I have
java and jre and jdk in my debian machine. I wish there were debian
packages. I must say, this project seems maintained but it has completely no
documentation which is a bit of a shame.

from the jhandles README:
 "Testing has only been done under Windows; there's a high probability
that it does not work under UNIX systems."

Is this guy serious ? It's not like testing it on linux is hard. I've spent
too much time reading dead mailing lists links on how to install jhandles
without much succes.

Sorry about the criticism, but I always thought octave is great but
maintained and documented in a little bit cranky way.

Oz.
