We use: - TCL/TK for front-ends. - Octave to convert data sets. - GnuPlot for realtime plotting the data. - PostgreSQL for data storage.maybe you can use octave also for plotting via gnuplot or via octaviz, octave VTK wrapper.
While I use gnuplot for 'quick' plots, it doesn't integrate very well in a GUI? I suppose you could render to png/svg and load them in :)
I've always thought about getting into octave, but for possibly the same reason as matlab and other specific-purpose languages/systems, it is difficult to know if the investment is worthwhile over learning a more general-purpose language - so far I just stick to c++ :) (well, and bash/shell tools, some python...)
If I start talking about PGSQL then I'm afraid that we'll move onto a different discussion entirely...ascii vs database vs netcdf vs HDF vs... ;)
