Bruce,
I did what you suggested.

Yes.

“aqua” is the default terminal.

I reset as suggested. gnuplot is working fine. The plot is generated. Even with “aqua”, the plot is visualized.

>  * Can you make a plot?  To find out, plot a sine wave at the gnuplot
>    command line with "plot sin(x)”

Yes. I just tested and left the gnuplot window opened and ran “athena” in another terminal, but there is no communication with gnuplot. Still, no data is plotted.
