  • plot library (implemented in C)
  • UTF-8 user input strings (to support virtually all math symbols and human languages)
  • non-interactive device drivers (supporting multiple image formats)
  • interactive device drivers (supporting multiple interactive environments)
  • bindings for multiple computer languages

    Great plotting library. Almost the only choice to embed a Cairo plot in Gtk 4 in the C programming language. Really hope this project can be active and keep updating.
