Does anyone have gnuplot running under X11 on the NeXT? I've gotten it to
compile and plot some stuff from data files but it won't "plot sin(x)" or
"set xrange [0:13]". It returns a "undefined value" under the "0". The
NeXT really does a speedy job with X11 plotting.

On a different note. I've received Lotus Improv. I'm used to running a Mac
IIx with MS Excel. I was REALLY let down when I tried to plot a series with
5229 data points and it gave me a "sorry, I can't plot more than the first 
1500 values" (paraphrase). I don't know how it compares on benchmarks to
MS Excel but I can tell you from just doing scatter plots it's a lot slower! 

Having Fun in X land.
Alan
