For simple 2D image visualization, I use the PDL::Graphics2D imag2d routine. It uses a simple GLUT window and OpenGL to render the image. Another minimalist option would be to save as an image and use your favorite image viewing tool.
As for PDL::Graphics::X, the version on CPAN is from 2005 which is about 3 years before I started as PDL release manager circa 2008 and I see know test reports from CPAN testers so, at the least, it needs to be made to build again. --Chris On Thu, Mar 27, 2014 at 5:30 AM, Schregle Roland HSLU T&A <[email protected]> wrote: > Dear list, > > I wanted to enquire about the status of the PDL::Graphics::X module; is it > deprecated or still maintained?
