Veusz - A Scientific Plotting Package

Veusz is a GUI scientific plotting and graphing package. It is designed
to produce publication-ready Postscript or PDF output. SVG, EMF and
bitmap export formats are also supported.

The program runs under Unix/Linux, Windows or Mac OS X, and binaries
are provided. Data can be read from text, CSV, HDF5 or FITS files. In
addition, you can also enter, manipulate or examine data from within
the application. In Veusz plots are created by building up plotting
widgets with a consistent object-based interface. The program also
provides a command line and scripting interface (based on Python) to
its plotting facilities. It can also act as a Python plotting module.
Veusz is written in Python. Its user interface uses PyQt and Numpy is
used to manipulate data.

The hdf5 library is an optional dependency (needed only if you want to
use HDF5 files).
