Re: [Pkg-octave-devel] need help of Octave language expert
Hi,
I'm cc'ing debian-devel, so people see that there is an answer. If
whoever wants to continue the discussion, please strongly consider
dropping debian-devel -- the list is noisy enough.

Directly accessing gnuplot (which is what 'gset' did) is deprecated in
octave3.0 and even more in the 3.2 series. Spending time on this issue
is probably wasted, unless TeXmacs' upstream is willing to adapt the
necessary changes.
Following
http://old.nabble.com/octave-plugin-maintainership-td26618436.html
it seems Mansour Moufid wanted to take over maintenance of the plugin. I
suggest getting in contact with him.

In essence, the plot commands in the file need a rewrite. Sorry, but my
problem is just the other way round: I have zero knowledge about
TeXmacs.
