As far as I can tell from the message you attached, you ran a PGPLOT
demo program that requires a cursor for user input, selected a device
that does not support user input, and got a message saying so.  That
seems reasonable to me... you might try selecting the /XW device.

But, is running the PGPLOT demos your goal?  What does that have to do
with Ifeffit?  If running Ifeffit is the goal, what happens when you
try to run the programs ifeffit or athena?  What does "I am not able
to run the demo programs" mean?
