You will see this: 4 Graphical User Interfaces *************************** Several graphical user interfaces have been written for `gnuplot` and one for win32 is included in this distribution. In addition, there is a Python interface at http://py-gnuplot.darwinports.com/ (http://py-gnuplot.darwinports.com/) Also several X11 interfaces exist. One of them is called xgfe. It uses the Qt library and can be found on http://www.flash.net/~dmishee/xgfe/xgfe.html (http://www.flash.net/~dmishee/xgfe/xgfe.html) In addition three Tcl/Tk located at the usual Tcl/Tk repositories exist. Bruce Ravel (ra...@phys.washington.edu) has written a new version of gnuplot-mode for GNU emacs and XEmacs. This version is based on the gnuplot.el file by Gershon Elber. While the gnuplot CVS repository has its own copy the most recent version of this package is available from http://feff.phys.washington.edu/~ravel/software/gnuplot-mode/ (http://feff.phys.washington.edu/~ravel/software/gnuplot-mode/) * Menu: * Bugs:: See that "Bugs" at the end? This is the problem: since "Bugs" is a top-level node, its presence in a level-1 node's menu makes the node tree not really a tree, so Backspace loops. Thus, the problem is in the way Gnuplot produces the Info manual from its documentation sources. This bug should be submitted to the Gnuplot project.
