[Plplot-devel] gnuplot to PLplot translation

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

I have just heard a rumor from one of my Debian contacts that gnuplot may
adopt a non-free license.  If that happens, we may be getting some gnuplot
refugees starting to use PLplot, and it might be worth our while to encourage
this by implementing a programme to translate gnuplot scripts into PLplot
(python?) scripts.

Do we have the (gnuplot) expertise here to make such an "import" programme?
My own memory of gnuplot is pretty vague since I last used that package 5 or
6 years ago.
