Thank you! This is the best tutorial - worked perfectly
ReplyDeleteHello , Thank you for the Amazing tutorial!
ReplyDeleteI faced an error while installing Xgraph , "segmentation fault (core dumped) ",
and when I type
>> whereis xgraph
there is only one path which is the ns-allinone ,
I tried to download it separately from http://www.xgraph.org/linux/index.html for linux 64 but could not install it correctly after unpackged it and "E: unable to locate package xgraph" message appeared !
Could you suggest a solution for that ?
Many thanks

ReplyDeleteBetter You can go with gnu plot instead of xgraph as xgraph has been stopped its update cycle and hence there will be bugs...
