One way to debug this sort of problem is run a demo such
as the SDF butterfly demo within pigi  and then take the contents 
of ~/pigiLog.pt and run it through ptcl:

xh@maury 13% ptcl
ptcl> source /users/cxh/pigiLog.pt
ptcl> run 10000
ptcl> wrapup

If you don't get the plot, then you need to figure out why pxgraph is
not running for you.  It could be a path problem
You should be able to do
echo "1 1" | pxgraph

    Hello ptolemy-hackers,
    
    I am running simulations in the DE domain. I cannot get most of the Batch
    display stars (BarGraph, Xhistogram, XMgraph) to work under ptcl.
    When I use these stars, the simulation runs without any error messages,
    but pxgraph does not open up any windows, nor am I able to save the 
    display data to a file. I can check the states of the stars in the
    simulation using "statevalue" and they are set to the appropriate values
    (for ex. the name of the output file to save the results in). However, the
    output file is not even created.
    These same simulations run under pigi and the batch display stars produce
    the graphs and files I need. I have also used (slightly modified) the
    pigiLog.pt produced by the pigi run as the ptcl script, and I get the same
    behavior as with my ptcl scripts - ie. the simulation seems to run, but no
    output file or graphs are produced. 
    The only star I could get to work is the Printer star.
    I have read the pxgraph man page and I have tried varying some of the
    options, where it made sense. The DISPLAY variable is set to the machine I
    am working on. I use the command "wrapup" after saying "run x", to flush
    any buffers.
    (I have tried simple simulations in the SDF domain and I have the same
    problem - I get stars like Xgraph to work under pigi, but not under ptcl)
    
    >From the mailing list archive, it looks like no one else has had this
    problem. Is there something obvious I'm missing to get these stars
    to work under ptcl? If anyone else is doing what I am trying to do, can
    you let me know what options you use and set to get it working. 
    
    Thankyou very much.
    
    Suma
