Sorry I missed the fact this issue makes for a slightly broken website (as can be seen at http://plplot.sourceforge.net/examples.php). I will fix that website issue before next weekend's release (see comment below) which will give a result that is consistent with Andrew's expressed desire to have example 32 on the website, but not ctested or propagated to other languages (yet). > I could do another release this weekend.

Ok, you have convinced me. Let's go for 5.9.4 next weekend with a news item and plplot-general note about the "cp" fix for 5.9.3. I will take responsibility for most of the issues that have come up recently (e.g., those mentioned by Orion, Hez's remaining patch, etc.), and I assume you will take responsibility for the missing aqt.rc.in file. Note, Werner has already committed some additional D examples. Also note I am going to try really hard to get the planned libqsastime stuff done by Thursday which should allow 1-2 days for testing of that change before the 5.9.4 release. Of course, Werner's added examples and my libqsastime work will make 5.9.4 more than just a bug fix release which has its advantages and disadvantages. However, I have some time constraints coming up so if I don't finish off libqsastime now, it might be delayed quite a while. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
