GNU plotutils contains software for both programmers and technical users. Its centerpiece is libplot, a powerful C/C++ function library for exporting 2-D vector graphics in many file formats, both vector and raster. It can also do vector graphics animations. libplot is device-independent in the sense that its API does not depend on the type of graphics file to be exported. Besides libplot, the package contains command-line programs for plotting scientific data. Many of them use libplot to export graphics. Other ./configure options that you may want to add (provided you install the required fonts): --enable-ps-fonts-in-pcl enable use of PS fonts in PCL and HP-GL/2 output --enable-lj-fonts-in-ps enable use of LaserJet fonts in PS output --enable-lj-fonts-in-x enable use of LaserJet fonts on X displays This package can be useful for managing GNU Metafile plots, used by default in applications such as ng-spice.
