The cause of this is that I have a private version of the AquaTerm framework in
/Library/Frameworks.
It is version 1.0.1.
So Gretl’s gnuplot was using the wrong AquaTerm.
But on my Snow Leopard machine the situation is the same and there the correct AquaTerm
is called.
Why this is happening? Mysterious ways of searching of OS X’s dynamic linker?
Or something to do with the way linaquaterm.dylib is supposed to look for AquaTerm.app?
I have some more information.
I just tried my private Gnuplot on the Snow Leopard machine after closing Gretl Quartz.
And hey presto now my private Gnuplot calls the Gretl’s AquaTerm and that then will not
open the window.
So it seems that libaquaterm.dylib is not always calling the correct version of AquaTerm.
Very weird.
