I am trying to install gnuplot on our sun4 and am having a problem with
the online help.  In the file /mainplot/plot.h you have to define HELP as
something but I'm not sure what.  Everything I've tried results in an error
message.  The original line read

  "HELP = /usr/.../bin/gnuphelp gnuplot"

but I'm not sure what the file gnuphelp is or the reason for including the
parameter(?) gnuplot at the end of the def Everything that I've
tried results in an error:

  sh: /usr/...
  can't spawn help
   no such file or directory exists

Can anyone give me some hints?
Thanks in advance
