Hi Hazen,

I justed tested (shortly) the latest PLplot svn on Mac OS X 10.5.6  
using the latest XQuartz X11 server (http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/wiki 
) since using the one from Apple is just a PIA.

I configured PLplot with

cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DBUILD_TEST=ON ../plplot/

and compiled it.

I think pthread is on since in the CMake output I find:

-- Looking for include files CMAKE_HAVE_PTHREAD_H
-- Looking for include files CMAKE_HAVE_PTHREAD_H - found
-- Looking for pthread_create in pthreads
-- Looking for pthread_create in pthreads - not found
-- Looking for pthread_create in pthread
-- Looking for pthread_create in pthread - found
-- Found Threads: TRUE

In the build tree the examples work as expected (more or less).  
Clicking with the right mouse button proceeds to the next page as well  
as pressing return. Ctrl-C also doesn't work either, but that might be  
due the threading stuff.

Since I'm using a non standard X11 server this test might be not  
useful at all, but at least we know that it's the fault of Apple's X11  
implementation (as usual) and not of PLplot.

Regards,
Werner
