PLplot is a scientific plotting package which is relatively small,
|
|
portable, and freely distributable. 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.
