[Plplot-general] cd-1.3.tar.gz now available as one of our file releases. You will need it only if you want to play with the new CGM driver.

[Alan W. I. <ir...@be...>]

Andrew Roach has created a new driver that produces CGM file output from
plplot.  This driver is still under development with some known minor colour
problems, but if you want to play with it (especially if you have need of
the CGM vectorized format), you will need the latest cvs version and you
will also need to specify the option --enable-cgm to ./configure.  You will
also need the libcd.a library and the associated header file cd.h installed
on your system.  Apparently SuSe does have the cgmdraw rpm which includes
these two files.  However, if you need to build and install libcd yourself I
have put the cd-1.3 tarball in our file release area
(http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2915) for your
convenience since that tarball is tough to find on the web.
