I would like to ask you a few questions first: - Are you using the latest release (PLplot 5.7.1) or version 5.6.1? - Are you using the ./configure script to build the libraries or are you using the CMake build system? This matters as far as several details are concerned. However, the general procedure is: (Autotools, PLplot version 5.6.1 and 5.7.1): ./configure --with-prefix=/my/own/install/dir make make install (CMake, PLplot 5.7.1, build in a different directory than the source): cd /my/own/install/dir cmake /my/source/dir make make install During the make phase, the system will produce a lot of messages, but to check if it was successful, just look at the last few. Similarly for the make install part. Try running the examples first to make sure everything was successful. As I have no access to OSX, I can not help out with the details for that platform, but this is the general idea.
