From there: ----------------------------- A situation often occurs, where the user ends up with some sort of a large dataset that needs to be visualised and analysed. Examples of this include: [snip] data from statistical or mathematical analysis (using, say, R or scilab); -------------------------------------- That is not sound. Lisi PS though the page does indeed also include sound wave plotters. > Cheers, > David. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
