Re: Density Graph, How?

[Paul Johnson]

I wonder about how you unix people make graphs, generally speaking.
In windows, I love graphics in Axum, which are now part of S+. Easy
way to create many kinds of graph and tailor every aspect of the graph.

I've found nothing comparably easy for linux.  I've got two computers, one
with windows, one with linux, and I'm planning to draw the graphs on the
windows machine with data from linux.  Samba works pretty nicely to make
such things possible. 

But, I know, it stinks to have to do anything in windows.  What is the
alternative?  Could somebody point me in the direction of resources that
explain how graphs ought to be done in linux?  I called the S+ folks and
they said the linux/unix version is nowhere as far along as the windows
one. 

I'm interested in graphing for a variety of purposes, not just swarm.

I suppose I'm just trying to avoid learning about writing code to draw
graphs.  Perhaps that is not possible.
