   Interesting...  A new version of Gnuplot (version 1.2) will be available
in a few months.  It adds a lot of functionality and several new device
drivers.  It should compile on most UNIX (UCB,SYSV), VMS, or MSDOS platforms.  
It supports a whole lot of devices, and it's simple to write a driver
of your own.  It doesn't support surface plots (yet), but I'd like to add
it now that someone has done the work.  Oh yeah, Gnuplot 1.2 doesn't core
dump unless it has a very good reason :-).
