[comp.windows.x] public domain graphics widgets

whiz@well.UUCP (Oishii Ichigo) (12/22/89)

Does anyone out there in X land have or know of public domain widgets for
graphing (and editing?) data.  I know about xgraph, but it is not a widget
and is for data display only (cannot edit).  Also, I'm looking for
dials, gauges, and vu-style meter widgets.

While I'm at it, does anyone have an X application similar to Sun's
mailtool that works with the standard Unix BSD mailer?

Thanks,

In <15159@well.UUCP>, whiz@well.UUCP (Oishii Ichigo) asks for graphics
widgets for dials, vu-graphs, meters etc.

As a partial help, the xcpustate program (available by anonymous ftp
from expo.lcs.mit.edu in contrib/xcpustate.tar.Z or from
cs.toronto.edu in pub/X/xcpustate.tar.Z, or in R4 contrib later this
year) has a Bar widget that does a semi-generic bar graph using
grayscale levels.  (Doesn't handle colour, probably a small matter of
programming to fix it)

If nothing else, it might offer a starting point for the others.  (I'd
appreciate copies of improvements or fixes)

PS: sites that cannot ftp will have to ask uunet or someone that can
make it available by uucp. Please don't ask us.
