Implot won’t run producess error

Hello,
Has anyone come up with this problem? I try to run implot in IRAF and it gives me this message:
START:
server # XGTERM.GUI -- Default GUI for Xgterm, providing a standard graphics terminal
# emulation.

reset-server
appInitialize irafterm IRAFterm {
IRAFterm.objects: toplevel Gterm gterm
*allowShellResize: true
*gterm.warpCursor: true
*gterm.raiseWindow: true
*gterm.deiconifyWindow: true
}
createObjects
send gterm setGterm
activate
re[]sz[R]
END
I'm not sure what it is doing and any help is greatly appreciated!!
Thanks,
Shelly

It means you're not really using an XGterm window. If you're using an XTerm then you need to tell IRAF that either when responding to the 'terminal type' prompt when doing a MKIRAF, or on the command line as e.g.

cl> stty xterm

Terminals like rxvt, gone-terminal, etc cannot be used as they do not support graphics.
