Fastx toolkits: Problems with fastq_quality_boxplot_graph.sh

Hello All,

I'm trying to run the follow command from fastx toolkits in my mac ox s 10.10.4:

$ fastq_quality_boxplot_graph.sh -i statR1 -o plotR1 -t Forward sequence

where -i statR1 is the output from the fastx_quality_stats command and this is the error I get:

/usr/local/bin/fastq_quality_boxplot_graph.sh: line 162: gnuplot: command not found

I checked for the command and it is on the write place and the 162 line says: echo "$GNUPLOTCMD" | gnuplot > "$OUTPUTFILE"

I installed gnuplot as recommended at http://hallora.tistory.com/entry/FastX-toolkit-local-install but I still get the same message.

Any idea what is happening?

Thank you to all!

Daniela

Is gnuplot in your PATH?

In other words, what happens if you simply type gnuplot on the command line?

Thank you Ryan and Dan, I actually did not have gnuplot. I already installed it.

Thanks.
