I am looking for a plotting package for a UNIX system.  I have seen a package
called GNUplot for a PC and I was wondering if a corresponding version existed
for Unix bases.  

Here are the capabilities that I am looking for:

-  Generate graphs given tabulated data
-  Multiple lines per graph
-  Log or Linear axes (selectable for either axis)
-  Titles (axes and graphs) and Text
-  Output for HPGL, Tek4010/4014, PostScript (any one will do)

For anyone who may be familiar, I use Grapher (Golden Graphics) and am looking
for a similar package for use on a UNIX machine.  If possible, it would be 
most convienient if it did NOT use windowing since this is a text based 
mainframe(?) that we work on not a graphics workstation.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
