Release Name: 1.6.2
Notes:
Changes: 1.6.2 (23 May 2002) ------------------- * Spiros Papadimitriou contributed an experimental piddle port. * You can now specify partial ranges for plots. So "p.xrange = 2, None" will set the lower bound of the plot p to be 2, and the upper bound will be guessed from the data contained in the plot. * Replaced "!= None" with "is not None" everywhere. * Fixed bug with added space in scientific notation ticklabels. 1.6.1 (14 Nov 2001) ------------------- * Martin Lamar ported the code to Windows. * Replaced "== None" with "is None" everywhere (again thanks to Martin). This should fix crashes with recent versions of numpy. 1.6.0 (07 Nov 2001) ------------------- * Clipping! * Better performance for plots with lots of data. Parts of the code were vectorized, and a new integrated libplot interface was written. Biggles no longer uses the python-libplot module. * Jamie Mazer contributed code for Matlab emulation, accessible by "import biggles.matlab". * Added the multipage() function for multipage postscript output. Thanks to Olivier Andrieu for the original patch. * Changed the default plot window size to 512x512 from 570x570. * Bug fixes: better tick generation on huge-ranged log axes; the "thousand tiny lines" problem with contour plots.
