I use the package manager fink to install gnuplot on MacOSX. It 
keeps track of dependencies on other libraries and fonts. You can 
get started here.

   http://www.finkproject.org

The eventual command to install the code is something like

  fink install gnuplot

or

  fink install gnuplot-nogtk

depending on what kind of graphics/library/device support you use.  
As of right now this instant, the current version is 4.6.0-2.  
Generally fink lags a few weeks behind the cutting edge, so that may 
be important in your decision whether to use it.  If you really are 
a noob, then this approach will solve a lot of problems with various 
software installations. After installation, do "fink list" to see 
what is available -- it is a very long list.
