Hi David
I would have gotten involved in this thread earlier if I had realised it
had moved to Visual Studio an wxWidgets and away from Cygwin. Sorry for
just reading the title and not the text.

I always use the visual studio IDE, I don't know if that is the route you
ended up going down. Have you found the instructions at
https://sourceforge.net/p/plplot/wiki/Configure_PLplot_for_the_Visual_Studio_IDE/?
They are a little out of date, but I don't think much has changed.

Phil
