What I am considering is looking a porting GNUPlot from Linux to z/OS UNIX System Services. I just haven't had time (or inclination). Our DASD person is really "pumped" on SASGraph, but the bloody thing is super expensive. And he doesn't want to use SAS on a PC somewhere (for whatever reason, maybe because it would take it outside his control?). John, and Alan, If you've got SAS, you can easily create CSV files that you put into Excel to produce graphs. It's not that difficult (especialy for someone who can handle SASGraph) to create Excel macros and automate the entire process. (i.e. batch job on MF creates and FTPs CSV data to PC that runs Excel Macros to create graph and Emails graphs to interested person). You can also automate it pretty much the same if you run SAS on your PC and not the mainframe.
