Hmm. Those instructions may be dated, make Linux-based assumptions,
have unmentioned dependencies etc. You might also be using versions of
Tcl or Tk that are not consistent with the ones used to build PLplot
(which would almost be guaranteed to produce bad results). So please
rebuild from scratch using the CMake option -DBUILD_TEST=ON (if that
isn't what you use at the moment) and then try the following tests
make test_tk_01
make test_tk_02
make test_tk_03
make test_tk_04
(These are all dependencies of the much larger test target
"test_interactive" which you might want to try some day when
you get all the interactive pieces such as the above tests
working properly.)
All of the above tests work fine for me on Linux. If any of the above
tests don't run on your platform, I am not sure I can help you further
since I am not a Tcl/Tk expert, but at least those with Tcl/Tk
expertise here will know exactly what was run (see
examples/CMakeLists.txt for the details and all the dependencies that
have to be satisfied) if you do find any problems with the above
tests.
