yPlot is riding on the shoulders of PLplot as it grinds relentlessly toward world domination....;-) What: yPlot 1.1.0 release (as a tarball and RedHat 6.2 rpm's). Where: http://sourceforge.net/projects/yplot (click on file releases). When: Now Why: Many bugs fixed and many new features Who: Alan and Conrad yPlot is a Yorick front-end to PLplot that combines the best features of both. You have all the power and ease-of-use of Yorick at your finger-tips combined with the rich scientific plotting API of PLplot. This yPlot release includes a tutorial and large number of illustrative examples that should get you plotting sophisticated publication-quality scientific plots in short order. This version of yPlot is based on PLplot-5.0.4 (see http://sourceforge.net/projects/plplot), which is a huge step up in terms of documentation, bug fixes, and features from the PLplot-4.99 snapshot that yPlot was based on before. In addition, yPlot-1.1.0 significantly extends the yPlot API to include virtually all the common PLplot API. For example, the new release includes new yPlot example scripts that can be used to mimic the results of virtually all the PLplot x??c examples including shade plots and 3D shaded-surface plots. Please see the CHANGES file for a summary of all the bug-fixing, API changes, documentation improvements, and API extensions that have gone into this release. Good Plotting!
