This has been discussed before. The problem happens because there is no global list of possible toolkits. Graphics toolkits are appended to the list when they are initialized, but that doesn't happen until they are actually used. This could probably be fixed, but it will require some reorganization of the way toolkits are initialized. I remember posting a suggestion about how to do it, probably to the maintainers mailing list, but I can't immediately find the message in the archives.

When executing

>available_graphics_toolkits


right after Octave starts, the result is

ans =
{
[1,1] = gnuplot
}

even if FLTK toolkit is present. Switching to FLTK still works, and after doing so available_graphics_toolkits gives the correct result:

> graphics_toolkit('fltk')
> available_graphics_toolkits

ans =
{
[1,1] = fltk
[1,2] = gnuplot
}
