Message-ID: <20001125114256.A23216@miss.wu-wien.ac.at> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5i Sender: weis@pauillac.inria.fr Hello, has anybody already considered implementing an interface to the libplot-library? http://www.gnu.org/software/plotutils It is very portable, knows many target "plotters" (from X-windows to various image formats), has lots of functionality and is thread-safe (i.e. you can have several independent "plotters" at once). ADA, Python and Perl already have interfaces so it may already be considered as a kind of standard in this field. I don't have time to do it right now, but if anybody wants to give it a try, I could imagine helping a bit. It doesn't look terribly difficult and may be a good exercise to try out camlidl...
