It has a wide range of plot types +including line (linear, log), contour, 3D, fill, and almost 1000 +characters (including Greek and mathematical) in its extended font +set. The package is designed to make it easy to quickly get graphical +output; only a handful of function calls is typically required. For +more advanced use, virtually all aspects of plotting are configurable. + +PLplot includes drivers for postscript, xfig, HPGL, impress, native +meta-file, X-Window, Xterm, Tcl/Tk, Tektronix terminals, vt100/tek and +vt320/tek emulators, and others. + +The PLplot package includes interfaces for the Fortran, C, C++, and +Tcl languages. There is also a Tcl based interpreter (pltcl), allowing +interactive plotting. |
