Ok, a real quick comment.

I just looked at your tarball. I don't know if I'm shooting for the same thing as you, you tell me. I would like my code to be structured like yours, except that:

a) I don't want to parse gnuplot, so all the fprintf and fputs are replaced by calls to functions in oct files.
b) To reduce the number of such oct files, I was going to put all those things you're printing in a cell array, and then call one master C++ function that parses the cell array and displays the plot.

But otherwise,

c) The C++ function in question is not user-friendly and is as small as possible while allowing you to implement the full HG functionality.
