Octave is a great sci software, which is very similar to Matlab. What makes it better than Matlab is the price 0. However, when the Octave is installed on Mac, the default term for figure output is Aquaterm. Although Aquaterm looks pretty good, one big disadvantage is that you can not close the windows by just typing ‘close’ in the terminal and you have to close them manually. Different from Aquaterm, X11 can work with Octave better. You can just use the normal Matlab way (type ‘close’ or ‘close all’) to shut windows down. How to make it? Quit simple, put the following words in ~/.profile, which you can find in your home directory.
export GNUTERM='x11'
