Bug#285735: RFA: kmatplot -- A Gnuplot-like tool for plotting data sets in 2D or 3D
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
I request an adopter for the kmatplot package.
The package should probably be replaced by qmatplot. Currently the only
difference is that qmatplot builds with GCC 3.3 without changes. The
package does seem to be quite dead, no development for quite some time.
Hugo
The package description is:
KMatplot is a gnuplot-like tool for plotting data sets in either two or
three dimensions. It can plot many types of 2d plots, including pixmaps
and contours, and 3d surfaces. It offers a full WYSIWYG mode with
multiple objects on a single page.
.
As opposite to Gnuplot, KMatplot is very clickable, so easier to use
for unexperienced users. It can be used instead of Gnuplot with Octave
and Scilab - there are new dll functions installed in those packages,
which communicate with KMatplot through an Unix socket. Those functions
are named 'kplot', 'kimage', kmesh', ... and are similar to those found
in Octave by default.
.
The Debian package is not built with Scilab support by default.
