Thanks, but it isn't perfect yet. For one, I'm not sure what to do with
kmatplotrc, I have a feeling it doesn't belong in /etc, and kmatplot is
searching for it in /usr/etc/settings/... clearly I'm missing some
compile switches or something. (You're not noticing that because you
already have a ~/.qt/kmatplotrc, I'm guessing.)

Next, there's one person experiencing segfaults when he tries to run it,
he posted to this list earlier. Has anyone else ever experienced 
something like that? I'll follow up on this issue later.


I still need to figure out how to plot nice surfaces from octave. Here's 
an example:

kaddaxes(1);
[XX YY] = meshgrid(-10:10, -10:10);
kmesh(XX, YY, sqrt(XX.^2+YY.^2));

Note that kmesh given only the Z parameter destroys the kmatplot window. 
There isn't some really nice docs on kmatplot yet, is there? I know of
the examples, and some help for the octave functions from within octave.

Thanks,
Hugo van der Merwe
