The new GNU Octave 4.0.1 was released March 23, 2016. I would like to find some standard way to install it in El Capitan (mine OS X 10.11.3) because it has significantly better support in some fun. Octave is free software licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL). Assuming you have Mercurial installed on your machine you may obtain the latest development version of Octave sources with the following command.
I provide another instructions to install Gnuplot 4.4.0 compiling it yourself on Mac OS X.
There are some possibilities to install Gnuplot on Mac OS X, none of them is “official”, since the Gnuplot project doesn’t provide binaries for Mac OS X. It’s actually quite easy to configure and compile Gnuplot (i.e. ./configure; make; make install), but some terminals are not built due to missing dependencies and this makes Gnuplot less powerful.
There is some information on the web about running Gnuplot on Mac OS X already (http://lee-phillips.org/info/Macintosh/gnuplot.html , http://maba.wordpress.com/2006/08/02/scientific-plotting-on-mac-os-x-using-gnuplot-and-plot/ ) and there is also http://www.finkproject.org/ and http://www.macports.org/ but there is IMO an easier way (though it still needs some work): there is a Gnuplot installer provided by Octave! Here are the instructions:
- Download Octave for Mac OS X from the Octaveforge homepage (latest version at time of writing was 3.2.2).
- Open the downloaded dmg file and browse to the Extras folder
- Open gnuplot-4.2.5-i386.dmg and copy Gnuplot.app to your Applications folder (or anywhere else).
- Alternatively you could directly download the gnuplot-4.2.5-i386.dmg from here.
That’s about it. Or at least it should be. Usually you just open Gnuplot.app and start plotting. But unfortunately the default aquaterm terminal doesn’t work for me always (on one Mac it did, on another it didn’t – maybe Aquaterm shouldn’t be installed before). So we need to hack Gnuplot.app so that X11 (which is also more powerful) becomes the default terminal.
- Right click on Gnuplot.app and choose “Show Package Contents”.
- Browse to Contents/Resources and edit “script” with your favorite text editor
- Replace both lines do script (“exec ‘${ROOT}/bin/gnuplot'”) with do script (“GNUTERM=x11 exec ‘${ROOT}/bin/gnuplot'”) . X11 will then be the default terminal.
You might also want to have gnuplot available in your usual terminal session. This is also no problem. Just run the following command in your terminal
where username is your user name. /Users/username/bin must be added to the path, so that Gnuplot works form everywhere, e.g. you could add the following to the /Users/username/.profile file
export PATH=$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH
If you run gnuplot from the Terminal.app again the Aquaterm terminal is the default. This can be changed by adding
to your .profile file.
GNU Octave 4.0.3 for Mac can be downloaded from our software library for free. Octave-3.8.2.tar.gz is the most common filename for this application's installer. The following versions: 3.8 and 3.4 are the most frequently downloaded ones by the program users. The program lies within Education Tools, more precisely Science. The Octave Wiki has instructions for installing Octave on macOS systems. Octave is also available in third-party package managers such as Homebrew and MacPorts. Executable versions of Octave for BSD systems are provided by the individual distributions. Both FreeBSD and OpenBSD have Octave packages. These packages are created by volunteers.

Octave.app is a project to bundle and distribute GNU Octave as a native Mac GUI application. This makes it easy to install and use GNU Octave on Mac.
We are not an official GNU project, or part of GNU Octave. We are a rag-tag band of misfits who’ve written a tool to download and build GNU Octave and its dependencies and bundle them as a Mac app.
Our goal is to make ready-to-use Octave.app installers available to the public.
Octave Mac Os Download
Download
All Octave.app releases are available on the Downloads page.
Octave For Mac
When running Octave.app for the first time, instead of just double-clicking it, you will need to right-click on it and choose “Open”, so you get a dialog asking you if you really want to run it, since it’s from an unidentified developer. This is because the app is not signed. This is something we’re working on.
If you’re feeling adventurous, beta and pre-release versions can be found on the Developer Downloads page.
Requirements
- macOS, version 10.11 El Capitan or newer
- MacTeX, if you want the help command to work properly for Octave Forge packages.
License
Most of Octave.app’s code is GPL, with the exception of its Homebrew formula files, which are BSD 2-Clause License.
GNU Octave itself is GPL. Its dependencies are available under various FLOSS licenses.
Alternate Installations
Installing with Homebrew Cask
Octave For Mac App
To install Octave.app using Homebrew Cask:
Installing directly with Homebrew
NOTE: This is not the normal way to install Octave.app! Unless you have a particular reason for doing this, please just download and install the regular Octave.app distribution.
If you want to build and install our Qt-enabled Octave build via Homebrew instead of using the Octave.app distribution, you can do this by setting up Homebrew as normal, and doing the following:
If you have a previous
octave
build from the regular Homebrew or dpo/openblas formulae, you need to unlink it first with brew unlink octave

Octave has many dependencies which will be downloaded and installed prior to Octave. The originals season 1 complete 1080p download torrent. The entire installation process can take a few hours if you are compiling from source.
Note: On Snow Leopard or earlier, Octave requires an X server. You can download one from the XQuartz project.
