I've installed tmux using brew ( arch -x86_64 brew install tmux ) on M1 Mac and since then my terminal is super slow. on lunch, after running commands and it's just incredibly slow.
I tried deleting the package using
brew uninstall pkg
it didn't work. I tried using the following commands as well.
brew remove pkg
brew rmtree tmux
I get "Error: tmux is not currently installed" since I've already uninstalled it..
and when using
sudo find / -name "*tmux*"
I still get many files including tmux.
GIFs showing the situation
any ideas/help on how to solve this?
Ok I have fixed it.
although I didn't know exactly what was the problem but it was something related to oh-my-zsh and to be more specific it was with the current oh-my-zsh theme powerlevel9k after installing tmux.
here is the steps I toke: I tried to change my shell to bin/bash it worked great. Tried a couple more shells and all worked great except zsh. then I tried to change the .oh-my-zsh directory name just for testing purposes and opened zsh, it worked great but of course without oh-my-zsh.
so I went to .zshrc and commented this line.
#ZSH_THEME="powerlevel9k/powerlevel9k"
obviously installing tmux messed things up so I'll need to reinstall the theme or oh-my-zsh all over again.
Sorry if this is a stupid question. I use python/jupyter a lot and it's stopped working after updating from Mac OS High Sierra to Big Sur. I'm trying to figure out why, but I'm not great with command line stuff.
The problem. When I try python3, pip -v, conda, etc. it says "command not found". python still seems to run, but it's 2.7 and I know I had 3 (I probably had a few versions from untidy file systems). I want to avoid reinstalling all my packages and things again, because I know it's still there and I've done this a few times already.
Some clues. I know this OS upgrade moves me from bash to zsh. I've tried just switching back to bash with chsh -s /bin/zsh but it still says command not found. I also noticed the OS update creates a Mac HD (below System/Volumes) within my Mac HD, and in that second one seems to be still all my python3/conda/pip/etc. folders. Not sure if/how this matters. Or if this is just a path issue.
I just want to get Jupyter running again on my Mac without reinstalling all my myriad packages from square one. Any help appreciated!
After extreme toil and research, I finally found something that worked for me.
Find the location of your Anaconda3. For me it was in ~/opt/anaconda3
Open terminal and type source <location of anaconda3>/bin/activate and then in the next line, write conda init zsh
Close your terminal and open it again. You should see a prefix (base) when you open it again.
All in all, for me it was
rko3 ~ % source opt/anaconda3/bin/activate
rko3 ~ % conda init zsh
Let me know if this works for you!
PS. You may be tempted to change $PATH variables. Anaconda advises against that. Use this reference instead that suggests the above. https://docs.anaconda.com/anaconda/install/mac-os/
I've just resolved this exact issue on my machine after upgrading to Big Sur from Mojave.
The issue: MacOS, as of Catalina, no longer lets you use the system root folder. Anaconda used to install in this folder. After upgrading from Mojave to Big Sur, you'll likely find your anaconda3 folder, including all your environments and packages, located here: /System/Volumes/Data/anaconda3.
Here is what to do to fix it:
Open Terminal
Move the anaconda3 folder:
sudo mv /System/Volumes/Data/anaconda3 ~/
Download Anaconda's Conda Prefix Replacement (crp) tool:
curl -L https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/misc/cpr-exec/cpr-0.1.1-osx-64.exe -o cpr && chmod +x cpr
Run the CRP tool (this will take a few minutes):
./cpr rehome ~/anaconda3/
Source anacoda3
source ~/anaconda3/bin/activate
Initiate conda
conda init
Quit Terminal and open it again.
Edit: Someone didn't like that I ended this answer with "That's it! Enjoy". In the scenario described, the steps above were indeed all it took to resolve the issue. If you're experiencing the same issue, I hope this helps resolve it, so you can get back to enjoying your updated OS.
Seems like your environement is not activated. Zsh sources ~/.zshrc while bash sources ~/.bashrc.
You can copy lines related to conda from your ~/.bashrc to your ~/.zshrc.
AF
Open the Anaconda navigator and click on the Environments section. There you will see the base (root) and a green triangle next to it.
Click on the triangle and select Open Terminal.
Now, in the terminal you will be already in the necessary directory for anaconda and you can then update any packages.
For example, just by writing conda update --all you can update all packages available for updates.
How does one install a runnable version of gnu plot in macOS high Sierra?
I am looking for a way to make this work with the GUI, but even just getting the terminal script to run would be a success.
Thanks!
The Brew implementation of gnuplot is not really usable because it no longer supports the necessary terminals (e.g., you can no longer provide --with-aquaterm or --with-x11 during installation).
However, the MacPorts package manager has a usable install for gnuplot (it's safe to have both Brew and MacPorts installed). https://www.macports.org/
After intalling AquaTerm, I used the following to install gnuplot, and all is working as expected:
sudo port install gnuplot +aquaterm
I'm using macOS Mojave 10.14.4.
It's easy enough with homebrew.
First, install Xcode command line tools:
xcode-select --install
Then install homebrew by going to homebrew website and copying and pasting the one-liner installation script. I don't want to paste that line here in case it changes down the line, so get the latest from the homebrew website.
Now you have a full package manager that allows you to find, install, update and delete thousands of packages. So you can easily find gnuplot or anything else with:
brew search gnuplot
Once you have found your package, check the avaiable options with:
brew options gnuplot
Sample Output
--with-aquaterm
Build with AquaTerm support
--with-cairo
Build the Cairo based terminals
--with-qt
Build with qt support
--with-wxmac
Build wxmac support. Need with-cairo to build wxt terminal
--with-x11
Build with x11 support
Now install with some sensible options for graphical plots:
brew install gnuplot --with-qt --with-x11
Always ensure your PATH starts with /usr/local/bin for homebrew since that is where it installs programs. I put the following in $HOME/.profile. And I also set the GNUTERM environment variable:
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
export GNUTERM=qt
Now run gnuplot:
gnuplot
Sample Run
Check out many useful packages, a nice new Python not Apple's old v2.7, a nice Linux-compatible sed not Apple's BSD version, a nice grep, a nice find, the brilliant GNU awk, ImageMagick, tmux, GNU Parallel, jhead, Poppler, exiftool, Mosquitto, pdfgrep, pngcrush, ZeroMQ... the list goes on...
#David Atri: gnuplot is not as standalone as you might think. Try to compile it from source and you will see how many options and dependencies it has.The main challenge in MacOSX is to get the PDF drivers running. The fact that you see many things as standalone is the good integration work made by the developers
brew is no longer support options.
You can still do "brew install gnuplot", but it will install with just the terminals that the person who wrote the homebrew formula wanted, not necessarily the ones you want.
Compiling gnuplot from the sources is still a nightmare, so you live with the brew-formula writer's choices, write your own brew formula (not completely trivial), or you struggle with huge pile of dependencies and try to compile from the sources.
I delete the zsh binary from bin folder , so when i try to change my shell i get this :
chsh: WARNING: shell '/bin/zsh' does not exist
I don't know how to reinstall zsh shell and MacOs come with zsh by default.
The easiest thing would be to install zsh using brew (which will install it in /usr/local/bin/zsh) and then symlink it to /bin/zsh.
There are obvious more ways to fix this, but this seems (to me) to be the simplest.
I fixed that problem using mac tools. I invested only about 30 min of my time whith the reinstall option. It's obviously there is a way to generate a zsh binary, but I find easy reinstall the osx due to Osx come by default with the zsh binary and brew install doesn't install the zsh binary. On the other hand, there must a way to install zsh from scratch but I think find the correct way would take more time
I've installed Octave and gnuplot via Homebrew, and downloaded AquaTerm.dmg.
When I try to plot, I get the following message:
octave:4> plot(x,y)
gnuplot> set terminal aqua enhanced title "Figure 1" font "*,6"
^
`line 0: unknown or ambiguous terminal type; type just 'set terminal' for a list`
In a bash terminal set terminal, set Terminal, set term, (and the same, followed by "aqua" too) etc gives nothing.
I've tried plotting again from octave having the "AquaTerm" already open, but nothing. I've tried plotting directly from gnuplot but same problem.. How can I do this "set terminal aqua"?
Gnuplot starting message says "Terminal type set to 'x11'" but no idea how to change it, the previous commands didn't work neither.
Since AquaTerm wasn't installed from Homebrew maybe octave/gnupot can't find it... but no idea.
Any guess? Thanks!
I had to add setenv("GNUTERM","X11") to OCTAVE_HOME/share/octave/site/m/startup/octaverc (OCTAVE_HOME usually is /usr/local) to make it work permanently.
Solution found and more details on: http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/os-x-apps-games/242997-plots-octave-dont-work.html
I've ran into a similar issue with Octave-cli, version 3.8.0, on OS X 10.9.1. Observing how Octave-gui could still plot charts, and reading up the answer with octaverc, I've got plotting to work from Octave-cli by adding a line with setenv("GNUTERM","qt") to /usr/local/octave/3.8.0/share/octave/site/m/startup/octaverc
I didn't have to re-install gnuplot or other dependencies.
Setting the terminal type to x11 would solve the problem, but if you want to get AquaTerm working with gnuplot here's how:
First we need to uninstall the existing installation of gnuplot, open up a terminal and run this command.
brew uninstall gnuplot
Download AquaTerm from here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/aquaterm/ and install as you would any OSX application.
From here on, there are two ways to get gnuplot happy with aquaterm, Method 1 is easier, but didn't work for me because my AquaTerm installation didn't create the correct symlinks in /usr/local/lib, Method 2 is the one that worked for me, and I am sharing the steps I took to get it working.
Method 1: Simply reinstall gnuplot after installing AquaTerm seems to fix this issue for people.
brew install gnuplot
Go to the verify step to see if everything worked, if not, follow method 2
Method 2: This method is more advanced, but guaranteed to work if you are patient.
Essentially gnuplot cannot locate the AquaTerm library files, that's why aqua doesn't show up as a terminal type option after we installed gnuplot. We need to modify the homebrew recipe for gnuplot to enable aquaterm support, open up the brew recipe for gnuplot by typing:
brew edit gnuplot
And add these lines as shown in this github commit message, this will enable the brew option for gnuplot to include aquaterm https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/issues/14647#issuecomment-21132477
Check to see if the proper AquaTerm library symlinks exist by doing these checks:
ls /usr/local/lib/libaquaterm*
ls /usr/local/include/aquaterm/*
The first line above should return some *.dylib files, the second line above should return
some *.h files, if they do not exist run these commands from terminal:
sudo ln -s /Library/Frameworks/AquaTerm.framework/Versions/A/AquaTerm /usr/local/lib/libaquaterm.dylib
sudo ln -s /Library/Frameworks/AquaTerm.framework/Versions/A/AquaTerm /usr/local/lib/libaquaterm.1.0.0.dylib
sudo ln -s /Library/Frameworks/AquaTerm.framework/Versions/A/Headers/* /usr/local/include/aquaterm/.
This is necessary sometimes as the installer for AquaTerm can't create the symlinks in the correct places due to permission issues. Once the /usr/local/ symlinks are created, reinstall gnuplot like this:
brew install gnuplot --with-aquaterm # (formerly --aquaterm in old versions)
Verify that gnuplot can see aquaterm using the steps below and happy plotting!
Verify: that gnuplot was configured with AquaTerm correctly by launching gnuplot in terminal
gnuplot
Type this in the gnuplot terminal
gnuplot> set term
Look for the line
Available terminal types:
aqua Interface to graphics terminal server for Mac OS X
...
If you see the that line above, then you are done, gnuplot is configured correctly and everybody's happy.
I found a way to generate the plots with octave, although is not using AquaTerm but x11. The problem was that Octave was "forcing" gnuplot to use aquaterm to plot. Instead of installing and integrating aquaterm into gnuplot, in octave typed: setenv GNUTERM x11. With this, plots are generated with x11 which is already in the terminal list of gnuplot (set terminal). I know it's a patch, but finally I don't mind aquaterm or x11, I just want plots to be generated
set terminal or set term is gnuplot command.
You just need to run gnuplot from command line to get access to the gnuplot shell.
However, this didn't work for me, neither did the setenv("GNUTERM","x11") in /usr/local/share/octave/site/m/startup/octaverc or ~/.octaverc (both do the same thing).
So I ran set term in gnuplot shell as saw no x11 in the list.
I used homebrew to install gnuplot, so I first uninstalled it brew uninstall gnuplot, then installed with x11 using --with-x flag for that:
brew install gnuplot --with-x
This solved the issue for me.
Use brew info gnuplot to see the list of flags for gnuplot installation.
P.S.
And yes, I did download an X11 dmg and installed it using package installer, still gnuplot had no x11 in the list of supported terminals.
You can try this:
>> brew reinstall gnuplot --with-aquaterm
or
>> brew uninstall gnuplot
>> brew install gnuplot --with-aquaterm
Create a file .octaverc in your home directory and set GNUTERM to X11
echo "setenv('GNUTERM','X11')" > ~/.octaverc
Open octave terminal and type sombrero to check whether plotting works
octave:1> sombrero
This worked for me:
Unistall gnuplot
brew uninstall gnuplot
Install AquaTerm. You can download it from here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/aquaterm/
Reinstall gnuplot
brew install gnuplot
Anton is correct. You can now just reinstall gnuplot with the --with-aquaterm option. I'd upvote his answer if I had enough reputation points to do it.
$ brew uninstall gnuplot
$ brew install gnuplot --with-aquaterm
Mackuntu mentioned above that this issue has been discussed on github.
https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/issues/14647#issuecomment-21132477
But he advised using the option --aquaterm. If you take a close look at the github link you'll see that the option is --with-aquaterm. Reinstalling gnuplot with this option today allowed me to run some old octave code that uses gnuplot for plotting graphs on OS X.
In my case, on Mas OS Mojave, the solution that worked for my was slightly different (it could be a matter of syntax only).
Following the discussion on this thread I came with the solution that worked for me - it might be important to note that it was possible for me to plot from the Octave-cli but not from Octave command line directly in terminal.
So I created a ˜/.octaverc file and added the following command to it:
setenv GNUTERM qt
Just quit the command line from octave and entered again and was able to plot.
Following thing worked for me:
setenv("GNUTERM","qt")
You can either run it on the octave cli, for local run or can set in the octave startup file for permanent.
/usr/local/octave/3.8.0/share/octave/site/m/startup/octaverc
Just remember in case you change octaverc file you have to have write permissions on it.
I have an answer that should resolve the issue you're encountering. Essentially, for me the problem was that the gnuplot build did not locate the proper AquaTerm libraries. Check out the post I made:
http://deveneezer.blogspot.com/2013/06/octave-gnuplot-and-aquaterm.html
What has worked for me is installing gnuplot-nox. Also see https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4866
Seems like the best way to install gnuplot-nox is to install fink.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/fink/?source=dlp
fink install gnuplot-nox
seems to do a good job. However the installation was failing at one point.
So I installed gnuplot-minimal then ran gnuplot-nox install again and everything worked just fine.
fink install gnuplot-minimal
fink install gnuplot-nox
gnuplot-nox install seemed to have set aqua as the default terminal for gnuplot. Verify that by going to gnuplot shell. To verify if plotting works, type plot(1) in the shell. It should show the plot in a window.
Hope that works for you.
Like suggested in other posts, setting GNUTERM to X11 didn't solve this issue for me. Also straight installing AquaTerm for Mac OSX didn't solve this issue.
The answer is already contained in the above, but this is simpler I think:
nano ~/.octaverc
add this:
setenv("GNUTERM", "X11")
Thats it restart octave you're done.
Here is the solution that worked for me (based on different parts of the mackuntu comment)
Gnuplot is probably already installed for you by the brew install octave command, so we need to remove it first
brew uninstall gnuplot
Then aquaterm has to be installed (http://sourceforge.net/projects/aquaterm/)
After install is complete you need to install gnuplot again. This is because brew detects the presence of aquaterm during install and will not do any checks for it after.
brew install gnuplot --with-aquaterm
If you launch gnuplot after install it should show that aquaterm is supported. And all graphics in octave will work.
