The software is copyrighted but +freely distributed (i.e., you don't have to pay for it). It was +originally intended as graphical program which would allow scientists +and students to visualize mathematical functions and data. Gnuplot +supports many different types of terminals, plotters, and printers +(including many color devices, and pseudo-devices like LaTeX) and is +easily extensible to include new devices. [ The "GNU" in gnuplot is +NOT related to the Free Software Foundation, the naming is just a +coincidence (and a long story). Thus gnuplot is not covered by the Gnu +copyleft, but rather by its own copyright statement, included in all +source code files.] |
