Thanks! The only issue I had with plots in IJulia was that I could not find a way to actually export or save them. Each time I kept getting blank documents. I want to be able to export them as publication quality (dpi=300). How do I do that from IJulia? Thanks, Eric On Friday, February 7, 2014

Thans, I did as you suggested and got the nebulous ln: /Applications/Julia-0.2.0.app/Contents/MacOS/Julia: File exists. The issue is that iJulia seems to work with PyPlot with a few warning messages but I cannot export or save the figures/graphs that are produced inline. If I run outside of

I just tried it on a fresh MacOS 10.9 machine with Anaconda, and it works fine for me. Perhaps things are a bit messed up because you installed both Canopy and Anaconda? Look in your ~/.profile and make sure any Canopy-related things are commented out, and then open a new Terminal window (to

Thanks. I am unsure how to do this exactly in Mac OS. My version of anaconda does not have a julia subdirectory and when I run Julia I just double click the application. Should I put this application somewhere inside the anaconda folder? Thanks in advance, Eric On Thursday, February 6, 2014

Try this from the terminal. This makes a symbolic link, and you then need to start Julia using the symbolic link. Be sure to substitute the last bit with the full path of your julia install. Here ~ means your home directory: # ln -s /Applications/anaconda/python.app/Contents/MacOS/julia
