[comp.sys.next] plotting program

Hi,
     I've seen this posted a thousand time and feel like the jerk of the
party for posting, but I need it and can't find it in old articles. What
are people using to plot a data file on the NeXT? I have a set of data
and want a package to turn my lines of (x,y) into a spiffoid graph. 
Prefferably it would be a PS spiffoid plot so I can look at it in preview.

     So, if anyone has a PD plotting program running, if they could send
me the ftp site (or other method of acquiring it) and any special magic
they had to perform to get it to run for the NeXT, I'd really appreciate
it.

Thanks!
-Chris

I've alternatively been using Mathematica, gnuplot, and an atomed copy
of a Sun2 or Sun3 binary of "graph" (for use with "psplot").  I really
wish NeXT would include "spline" and "graph" with their machines.
