Hi Thor
Thank you for your source code and your patch. I enjoy about your idea
which increases the productivity.
It is also in my opinion to use gnuplot as plotting tool to create
spectrogram in the same, my, style.
I also think about the grab the spectrogram datas via imagemagick. But
in this case it is easier to use GSL.
Thank you for your help. Your code snippets are very informative.
Markus
