In the version of gnuplot that I have (v4.4.3 shipped with Octave 3.4.0 for OS X) there are only THREE instances of the variable to change. I'm running 10.7.4 for those that this affects. – Mark Kegel Jul 25 '12 at 2:27.
I am running Mac OS Mavericks 10.9.4.
First, your versions of everything are old, it worked for me with the latest: MacOS 10.13 + Xcode 9.2 + clang-4.0 (4.0.1 from Anaconda) + Octave 4.0.3. For Octave 4.0.3 I used their MacOS bundle, not MacPorts. It's super fast, it includes GUI, and there's none of the delay with gcc48 you mentioned.

Installed Octave 3.8.1 via Homebrew which came with gnuplot 4.6
Have XQuartz 2.7.6 installed.
I restarted my computer after all was done.
In order to plot in octave-cli everyone states that I should just ‘set terminal x11’ BUT I don’t even have x11 listed when I run ‘set terminal’ in gnuplot
Of course octave-cli will complain that my terminal is unknown.
What did I do wrong? How can I debug this situation?
I found the answer here. Basically gnuplot
needs to be reinstalled as:
This page also helps with troubleshooting Octave installation on Mavericks.
On El Capitan it shows error. So here’s what you do:
brew reinstall gnuplot --with-qt
gnuplot
You have at least three options:
brew reinstall gnuplot --with-x11
brew reinstall gnuplot --with-qt
brew reinstall gnuplot --with-qt5
The graphical quality of plots is much better with option 3 compared to option 1.
