NAME

pgplot - scientific plotting subroutine library  

SYNOPSIS

 

DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the pgplot plotting subroutine library. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

pgplot is a large collection of plotting routines callable from C, as well as FORTRAN (also perl, see below). Many drivers are included to render the plots on devices. To use PGPLOT, you must set the environment variable, PGPLOT_DIR to "/usr/lib/pgplot". That is , under csh, type setenv PGPLOT_DIR /usr/lib/pgplot . Under bash, type PGPLOT_DIR="/usr/lib/pgplot";export PGPLOT_DIR  

SEE ALSO

Documentation on the library can be found in the directory, /usr/doc/pgplot . There exists a perl interface to pgplot, pgperl, also available for Debian. Extensive documentation can be found at
