This report is filed against a legacy version of Octave (3.8.0).  Closing report.  It can be re-opened if the upcoming 4.0 version shows the same problem, but there have been many improvements and hopefully this has sbeen fixed.

This error message comes from gnuplot, not from Octave, so that confirms it is related to the gnuplot toolkit under Mac OS. The reference to "Qt terminal" in the error means that GNUTERM is "qt", which is set by Octave when our GUI is running.

This bug report needs some gnuplot on Mac expertise.

Hmm, sounds like Gnuplot again. Does Octave
really communicate with the Qt plotting through a pipe?
If so, will it really be more effective than FLTK?

It has not been possible to solve the pipe problems
with Gnuplot.

Try this code:

x=0:0.1:10;

plot(x, sin(x))

and then close the plot window. It gives an error:

Qt terminal communication error: select() error 9 Bad file descriptor

and when trying to plot again, it says:

warning: broken pipe
