Package plplot: Information

PLplot is a cross-platform software package for creating scientific
plots. To help accomplish that task it is organized as a core C library,
language bindings for that library, and device drivers which control how
the plots are presented in non-interactive and interactive plotting
contexts.

The PLplot core library can be used to create standard x-y plots,
semi-log plots, log-log plots, contour plots, 3D surface plots, mesh
plots, bar charts and pie charts. Multiple graphs (of the same or
different sizes) may be placed on a single page, and multiple pages are
allowed for those device formats that support them.

PLplot device drivers support a number of different file formats for
non-interactive plotting and a number of different platforms that are
suitable for interactive plotting. It is easy to add new device drivers
to PLplot by writing a small number of device dependent routines.
