Hello sorry to bother. I did research, could not find relevant support for this problem, so I am coming to the mailing list as last ditch.
Here's the problem: When I try to use plot in octave, I get the following output: "warning: could not match any font: *-normal-normal-10 warning: ft_render: unable to load appropriate font ... [repeated roughly 100 times] warning: could not match any font: *-normal-normal-10 warning: ft_render: unable to load appropriate font panic: Aborted -- stopping myself... attempting to save variables to 'octave-workspace'... save to 'octave-workspace' complete Aborted (core dumped)" Then it quits octave and returns me back to the terminal. I am using Cygwin on a Windows 8 system. I am using octave 3.8.1. It doesn't seem to be that I'm missing any critical files because I do have etc/fonts.conf where it should be. But honestly I have no clue and it doesn't seem like anybody else is having this specific problem. Most other people who received the double warnings seemed to have additional errors and path configuration errors that provided some information. Any help is greatly appreciated, and, though I have done a lot of research already, I hope that this hasn't already been answered.
