Annotation of OpenXM_contrib/gnuplot/docs/old/README.3p4, Revision 1.1.1.1
1.1 maekawa 1: This version of gnuplot represents the work of many people. For a more
2: complete list read the RCS log on the top of makefile.unx. This version
3: originally was centered on Jos Van Woude's probability functions,
4: Don Tabor's discrete contour levels and Rob Cunningham's binary file
5: IO capability. It has grown tremendously. Russell Lang and Maurice
6: Castro added MS-Windows capability and much more. Roger Fearick
7: added OS/2 capabilility. Alexander Lehmann and Hans-Edgar Koechling
8: greatly improved Atari support. (There are also an OS-9 and PC-9801 versions
9: of 3.2 and a Mac version of 3.0 and a multiple plot on a page mod
10: which were not integrated into this release.) Eric Youngdale replaced the
11: explicit function hidden line removal routines with a more general
12: implicit bitmap (which requires more memory). Gershon Elber fixed
13: many 3D bugs and added the "dgrid3d" option which takes allows
14: scattered data to be contoured. Ed Kubaitis reworked the X11 support.
15: In addition, many more devices are now provided. We have
16: always added device drivers because we have no way to debug most of
17: them and only by including them into the package we obtain feedback.
18:
19: In addition, we have begun a contrib subdirectory which contains
20: external library, programs, and mods which help in the use of
21: Gnuplot. Many of the diffs are now out of date and will take
22: some work to implement.

24: These contributions are not in any particular order.
