PLOT_PS/XPS: a C Graphic Library Package (Linux Journal)
The Linux Journal has
an article
that shows how to use the PLOT_PS and PLOT_XPS libraries to generate
PostScript and X window viewable graphics plots.
"Almost any data analysis benefits from graphic outputs. They often lead to a more affordable and synthetic view of results than any table can provide. To meet this type of need, we developed a graphic library that easily produces high quality printouts using the PostScript (PS) language."

PLOT_PS/XPS: a C Graphic Library Package (Linux Journal) Posted Oct 31, 2002 17:23 UTC (Thu) by airwin (guest, #6920) [Link] Why stop with C/C++? Shouldn't you also be able to call your plot library from python, java, tcl, fortran, yorick, and octave? Check out plplot.org which has all these front ends. Why stop with postscript output and an X window of the results? Shouldn't you also be able to direct plot output to png, jpeg, or cgm file formats and also to tk and pyqt widgets? Check out plplot.org which has all these device drivers and many more. Disclaimer: I am a proud member of the PLplot development team. PLplot is licensed under the LGPL. PLplot version 5.1.0 was released early in this year, and version 5.2.0 should be coming soon!
