[Octave-patch-tracker] [patch #7847] Make gnuplot Qt terminal default for GUI/IDE via environment variable

[Dan Sebald]

Follow-up Comment #4, patch #7847 (project octave):

I'm going to open this discussion to the maintainers list because it would be
nice to see generally how people feel the octave-gui vs. octave-cli figure
should behave.

I think the patch you submitted is probably where we will end up, but the
ramification is that using the pre-defined GNUTERM variable might mean that
the Qt terminal for the GUI/IDE is missed when the Octave developers
preference is to use Qt.

We did need a change like yours for replacing "putenv" with something that
also compiles under Windows.

More on the discussion list...
