This is actually a problem with the unicode build of wxWidgets you seem to use on the Ubuntu system. My last changes should solve this problems. In the future I'll also test with unicode builds of wxWidgets. Alan, could you test the wxwidgets driver again? > * We need a libltdl build solution for windows so that we can try that > library on that platform for the dynamic (plug-in) form of our devices.

I think for the moment this should be postponed until the next release. On either side we should make the Windows port of plplot more complete, e.g. make all the bindings (if possible) work, on the other side this sounds like a major task and a lot of work ;) Also just for information, I also tested the pdl binding - I installed perl and the pdl module, cmake had no problems during configuration, plplot compiles, but there are no examples for testing? So maybe it works but I couldn't test it so far ;) Another outstanding issue in my opinion is the documentation of the new CBS. There is the wiki right, but we should also update the documentation at least before a 5.8.0 release. Regards, Werner -- Dipl. Ing.
