As the OP on that thread, I'll jump to my own defence here... I was
more than

newer than the one that I tested). Given that, they are probably worth
looking at again. (Although now I've settled on PyX, I'm unlikely to
change again for a few years... one can't afford the time to learn a
new graphing tool every few months; at some stage one actually needs
to get some work done rather than adapting to the new graphing package
du jour.)
Indeed. For completeness, I'll mention matplotlib, a python system that
works both interactively and by script. Someday it will be the standard
for use with scipy. (I think you said GPL in your OP, so I didn't speak
up initially. matplotlib is BSD or something like it. Still open source.)
I use both PyX and matplotlib, depending on what I'm after. I agree
with your PyX comments about learning curve and documentation ... but
the results are spectacular. (It reminds me of learning TeX/LaTeX.
It took my three weeks to learn how to change the margins. But I can't
live without it now.)
best of luck with it!
cheers
