Regarding problems getting ifeffit/athena to communicate with pgplot on Mac OSX: Hmmm.... I'm confused. I got the current version of horae to work just fine on my officemate's Mac. Paul Fons told me that pgplot was placed in /sw/lib/pgplot/ by fink. I put some logic in the horae build script that checks to see if it is running on Darwin and then adds "-L/sw/lib/pgplot/" to the compile flags for the wrapper. Is that not the right place for pgplot? Another question: what is the reponse when you do this at a terminal command line on your OSX machine: perl -e 'use English; print $OSNAME, $/' The logic in the build script assumes that the answer is "darwin".
