Hello, Quoting Folkert van Heusden <folkert@vanheusden.com>:
When trying to plot a graph from octave, it fails to do so with all kinds of gnuplot errors: gnuplot> set terminal aqua 1 enhanced ^line 0: unknown or ambiguous terminal type; type just 'set terminal' for a list
...

Why would gnulot be trying to use the 'aqua' terminal? It is non-existent on non-apple builds of gnuplot. *That* is your problem. Your script works fine(produces a plot) even in an old build of 2.9.17 I have on my current machine.
If you have a ~/.gnuplot file, that is the first place to look. The next place I would suggest is ~/.octaverc and any project specific ones you might have($PWD/.octave)
