[comp.sys.mac.misc] Kalidegraph

Hi!

	I have been trying to track down the creators of Kalidegraph, a
	scientific graphing package.  I've plowed through past issues of
	MacWorld, but I haven't found anything about them.  The lab that I
	have been managing has been using Cricket Graph (gag!) but I would
	like to try something better, and I've heard that Kalidegraph
	blows Cricket Graph out of the water.  Has anyone used Kalidegraph,
	and if so, how did you like it?  Have you also used Cricket Graph, and
	how does it compare to Cricket Graph?

		Thanx in advance!

People develop chauvinisms about their graphing package, so you could
find zealous supporters and vehement detractors of just about
anything.  Except CG, which everyone agrees sucks.  I happen to be a
KaleidaGraph fan.  Best application for scientific work, with the
possible exception of Igor, depending on what you're using it for.
DeltaGraph is cute, but for MBA's, despite their literature.

KaleidaGraph, however, has some pretty egregious annoyances -- I like
it enough to care that they fix it right, so my research group has
collected about four pages of bug fixes, annoying things and wishes
for future releases, which we'll be sending to them.
