I'm afraid you're rather completely misunderstanding that message. That's not a file it's looking for. It's a DISPLAY. Those would usually be not a file, but rather an (abbreviated) IP address / hostname plus some X11-specific extension. The usual shortest form is ":0", which is equivalent to "the first display on localhost". The exact form to be used is a property of your X11 server. You _are_ running one, I hope? | I decided to upgrade gnuplot to 5.0.0 and point it to the correct > X11.app location in /Applications/Utilities/ . I modified line 294 > of the makefile but still receive the same message No wonder. DISPLAY is not something to be set in Makefiles. You set that in your environment, to tell X11 programs where their display is to show up.
