Gerber With all due respect, I'm surprised that you couldn't find it. ;-) $ apt-cache show gri Package: gri Status: install ok installed Priority: optional Section: science Installed-Size: 1456 Maintainer: Peter S Galbraith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Architecture: i386 Version: 2.12.11-0sarge1 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.3.2.ds1-21), libgcc1 (>= 1:3.4.1-3), libstdc++5 (>= 1:3.3.4-1), netcdfg3 (>= 3.5.0-1) Suggests: gri-html-doc, gri-ps-doc, gri-el Description: a language for scientific illustration Gri is an open-source language for scientific graphics programming. It is command-driven, as opposed to point/click. Some users consider Gri similar to LaTeX, since both provide extensive power as a reward for tolerating a learning curve. The output is industry-standard PostScript as output, suitable for inclusion in other documents. . Gri can make x-y graphs, contour graphs, and image graphs. Fine control is provided over all aspects of drawing, e.g. line widths, colors, fonts, etc. Greek letters and mathematical symbols are available in a TeX-like syntax. . Folks who write 1000-line Gri scripts usually start with something as simple as the following: . open file.dat # open a file read columns x * y # read the 1st column as x and the 3rd as y draw curve # draw the data and autoscale the axes . A full manual is also available in HTML (gri-html-doc package), in PostScript suitable for printing (gri-ps-doc package) and on-line by following links from the gri home page: http://gri.sourceforge.net/ The above is my sarge build of the unstable version that I use at work.
