Does anyone have gnuplot running under X11 on the NeXT? I've gotten it to compile and plot some stuff from data files but it won't "plot sin(x)" or "set xrange [0:13]". It returns a "undefined value" under the "0". The NeXT really does a speedy job with X11 plotting. On a different note. I've received Lotus Improv. I'm used to running a Mac IIx with MS Excel. I was REALLY let down when I tried to plot a series with 5229 data points and it gave me a "sorry, I can't plot more than the first 1500 values" (paraphrase). I don't know how it compares on benchmarks to MS Excel but I can tell you from just doing scatter plots it's a lot slower! Having Fun in X land.

I just got an X11 program called drawplot that does x-y plotting to work on
the NeXT, under X11. I'll put on an anonymous ftp site that we are going to
set up here next week. One idea we had was to put X11 stuff that works on the
NeXT (including binary) up for ftp, if there was enough interest. Most of
this stuff works by just going in and doing battle with the Makefile and
imake. Also have binary for the ImageMagick by the way.
I also put Bash 1.07 (the case reserve version) on sonata.cc.purdue.edu
There is a compiled striped version called bash in the compressed tar archive.
If you want to build it with symbol tables or with -g for debugging, then you
will have to go in and do a make, after changing the appropriate compiler
flag. There is also some (though not much, yet, but it is being worked on)
documentation and a man page.

Where did you get Bash 1.07? The final version hasn't been released.
Brian Fox went to Germany, and decided not to release it because of a
few bugs.

The readme said that it had been compiled and tested on a NeXT 2.0 among other machines. I downloaded it, made a few changes to get it to do what i wanted, typed make and striped the executable. It's the shell i'm using now, replacing bash 1.05. In any case i pulled the stuff that i posted off of the archive. Someone else can post it when someone else figures out that it is the right time. -- =============================================================================== Internet: simmons@rigel.neep.wisc.edu Othernet: simmons@hoofers.lake.mendota --- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- --- According to the HitchHikers guide to the galaxy, the one thing we *cannot* afford to have is a sense of perspective. ===============================================================================

I have a NeXT, at least for the time being, so the NeXT will be one of the platforms I directly support.
