This is to solicit alpha users willing to look at an experimental
gnuplot library I've created called gplotlib.  At this point gplotlib
is merely an experiment and there is no reason at all to think it will
ever make it into the gnuplot distribution.  On the other hand, I did
the work hoping one day it might grow into something useful.

Gplotlib uses the terminal drivers and a slightly modified term.c
piece of code to provide programmers easy access to all those nice 
terminal drivers in gnuplot.  A friend got me started on this with the 
idea of making graphs in a public domain spread sheet package.  Right 
now the only program written with this library is a bar chart program 
that exists mostly to show how to use the library (although it does as 
promised and will generate bar charts).

Don't expect a very polished product right now.  The documentation
lives mostly in the source code and the makefiles are fairly untested.
Still, for an alpha package, it's not that horrible.

Dave Kotz was nice enough to give me space on his cs.duke.edu machine,
so if you have ftp access you can pick this up as ~pub/gplotlib.tar.Z
on cs.duke.edu.  Otherwise you can ask for a shar file from me:
