Agreed, Grace is missing from the list.
My experience with Grace is that it is great for "publication quality"
output from octave, but would drive a normal user insane during
day-to-day usage. Although Grace allows interactively setting fonts,
axes, line type and width, etc. after the plot is on the screen, and
then saving the plot for future modifications, all those extra controls
come with a time-consuming cost in productivity.
If possible, it would be nice to keep Grace as an option, unless the
new octave graphics package, whatever it is, has some options similar to
Grace for publication graphics.
Happy U.S. Turkey Day to all.

The graceplot package is one of only two existing octave-forge packages,
the other being gpc, that has not been converted to the 2.9 package
manager. So unless someone does something about it, its likely to be
missing from the package manager..
