patches,..Re: [Plplot-general] PLplot 5.0.0 is released

[Vince D. <vi...@sa...>]

Some time soon I'm going to try to tackle the task of integrating my
changes into 5.0.  My changes are quite varied, so hopefully I'll be able
to split them into a number of separate, independent patches.  However,
before I start that, I have a couple of questions:

(i) Does plplot support building any form of loadable extension for
Tcl/Tk?  (i.e. a shared library Plxxx50.so which can be loaded into Tcl/Tk
via 'load Plxxx50').

(ii) Does plplot support cross-compilation (particularly for a cygwin
hosted system to build linux executables)?

(iii) Is there any configure/makefile support for non-unix based
platforms?

cheers,

p.s. Does plplot 5 fix the 'M = J' bug evident in the standard font
library (but not the extended font lib)?
