I use TeX a lot (Andy Fyfe's DVI previewer, and a HP Deskjet printer). What I'd *really* like to be able to do is to mix even some limited graphics (e.g., the "cheap draw" program's output) with the tex output. Is there any way to do this, without a major hack on the dvi driver, and/or has anyone already done something like this? Also, are are there any drawing tools available for MGR? Howard E.

With the latest version of gnuplot (2.1?), you can specify LaTeX as an output device, and include the file in your documents - looks great! It uses a lot of TeX memory, though. If you need to plot more than one curve per graph, you'll need the "big tex" off OSU. The sc spreadsheet which Lenny got onto OSU can also produce TeX or LaTeX table output. That's also very nice. BUT, I'd like a 3b1 program that can do charts as well as functional plots. I've eard rumors of a gnuplot modification called fchart. Does anybody else have any info. on this?
