I recently installed the latest stable Fink over OS X 10.2.4 and
Apple's X11 beta3.

There are a couple of things I'm having difficulty with.

1. How do I get my default shell for xterm changed?  I changed my
default to /bin/bash in Netinfo (also in /etc/passwd for good
measure).  The Mac Terminal app respects this choice, but when I start
X11 the xterm still comes up with tcsh as the shell.

2. Gnuplot as installed via Fink (version 3.8h) is behaving oddly.  I
need to be able to use it in batch mode, but that's not working.  For
example, I created a trivial input file, foo.gp, as follows:

set term png
set output 'foo.png'
plot sin(x)

When I do "gnuplot foo.gp" at the command prompt I expect for gnuplot
to silently create foo.png (as it does on Linux and on Windows), but
what actually happens is that an interactive gnuplot session starts in
the terminal window, showing the message "terminal type set to
'unknown'".

Thanks for any help with these issues.
