For people to use the new version of pgplot they need the following environment variables MUST be set: setenv PGPLOT_DEV /xserve setenv PGPLOT_DIR /vol/vssp/packages/pgplot-5.2.0 setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /vol/vssp/packages/pgplot-5.2.0 The last may already be set for other packages, in which case the above path should be added to a colon separated list. I have also found the following settings useful which people can adjust if they are aware of them. They are not essential, I think. setenv PGPLOT_GIF_HEIGHT 419 setenv PGPLOT_GIF_WIDTH 598 setenv PGPLOT_PS_BBOX MAX setenv PGPLOT_PS_HEIGHT 11500 setenv PGPLOT_PS_HOFFSET 200 setenv PGPLOT_PS_VOFFSET 200 setenv PGPLOT_PS_WIDTH 8000
