A coworker wants to know if there are any scientific-graphics packages (similar to Harvard Presentation Graphics, but more "scientific" -- i.e. with log. axes, scatter plots , etc.) available on the market. I know of several graphics libraries, but am unfamiliar with packages as described above. Anyone know of any? Thanks in advance. ---------- arpa: mike@lll-lcc.arpa "Si vis pacem, para bellum" - Vegetius uucp: ............seismo!lll-lcc!mike ....ucbvax!lll-crg!lll-lcc!mike ...........rutgers!lll-lcc!mike

I haven't tried it, but I recieved a blurb on 'Spidre', available for $195 from PennWell books. 918/831-9421. Does linear, semilog, loglog, etc. Lots of options, full control over annotation, interfaces to lotus or any columnar data file. "Spidre is a technical plotting program created specifically for persons whose requirements cannot be satisfied through general purpose graphics programs." Has lots of enthusiastic user 'quotes' in the ad. A few other things it does: scatter plots, curve smoothing, multiple symbols, up to four axes and ten data streams on a single plot, etc etc.... If anybody has or gets a copy, please review it for us! -- OOO __| ___ Peter Holzmann, Octopus Enterprises OOOOOOO___/ _______ USPS: 19611 La Mar Court, Cupertino, CA 95014 OOOOO \___/ UUCP: {hplabs!hpdsd,pyramid}!octopus!pete ___| \_____ Phone: 408/996-7746
