Qt Wrapper for gnuplot

[Ian R. G. <ge...@kd...>]

Greetings,
I have been working on a KDE interface to Octave, when I found that there
was no nice KDE wrapper around gnuplot.  So I started one.

I am mostly looking for people who are interested in helping me that are
familiar with gnuplot.  I only really know how to do pretty simple things
with it, but I did most of the dirty work already, so anyone with minor
C++ knowledge, and a good gnuplot background would work.

The following C++ code generates the graphic at
http://www.geiseri.com/kdevelop/gnuplot.png

	KGNUPlotWidget *wid =3D new KGNUPlotWidget();
	LineStyle line(2);
	line.setLineType( 4 );
	line.setLineWidth( 1 );
	line.setPointType( 6 );
	line.setPointSize( 3 );

	LineStyle border( 3 );
	border.setLineType( 9 );
	border.setLineWidth( 2 );

	FillStyle fill;
	fill.setType( FillStyle::pattern );
	fill.setFillPattern( 2 );
	fill.setBorderStyle( &border );

	FunctionPlot *plot =3D new FunctionPlot( "sin(x)" );
	plot->setTitle( "Test Plot of sin(x)" );
	plot->setStartRange( -1 );
	plot->setEndRange( 2 );
	plot->setPlotStyle( PlotBase::linespoints );
	plot->setLineStyle( &line );

	wid->addLineStyle( &border );
	wid->addLineStyle( &line );
	wid->addFillStyle( &fill );

	wid->show();
	wid->resize(400,300);
	wid->setXLabel("Test X Label");
	wid->setYLabel("Test Y Label");
	wid->setFormats(KGNUPlotWidget::X, "%g");
	wid->setFormats(KGNUPlotWidget::Y, "%.2f");
	wid->plot(plot);

Currently line styles, arrows, and arrow styles are supported.  Fill is
sort of supported, and plot for data or functions will work with most
simple cases.  I think the big issues that remain are the ones I am not
aware of ;)

Currently there is a small dependency on KDE, but I have plans to remove
it, and the remainder works on Win32 or Unix.

So who wants to play?  I'm not on the list so please CC me.
