Dear all,

Since the topic of Qt on macOS has come up repeatedly on this mailing list,
I am glad to report that static binaries (which I focus on to make sure
that installation packages are self-contained) for gnuplot 6.0.2 and the Qt
terminal are available now. Executables for Intel- and ARM-based Macs can
be found at
https://csml-wiki.northwestern.edu/index.php/Binary_versions_of_Gnuplot_for=
_macOS

Please do not hesitate to report any problems.

While on the topic of Qt. I hope this is not a silly question, but am I
correct that the buttons with the magnifying glass and a +/=E2=80=93 sign d=
o not do
what I would expect (namely zoom in/out)? Instead, they seem to serve to go
to the next/previous zoom level, IF one has already gone through a sequence
of zoom steps using the + key. At first, this seemed so odd that I assumed
it was a problem with Qt on macOS, but I now confirmed that on Linux
gnuplot + Qt works the same way. Am I missing something?

Kind regards,

Erik
