OVERVIEW -------- PLOTMTV is a multipurpose X11 plotting program. PLOTMTV specializes in contour plots, but it can also handle 2D and 3D plots. The plot-types supported are as follows: * contour plots (rectangular grid, as well as triangular mesh) * 2D line and scatter plots (x-vs-y) * 3D surface , line and scatter plots * vector plots * probability plots * histograms * barcharts The program has an rough but functional Graphical User Interface, through which it is possible to zoom in, zoom out, pan, toggle between 2D and 3D plots, and rotate 3D plots. Both color and grayscale postscript output are supported. PLOTMTV V1.4.1 is available on the following sites: ftp.x.org: /contrib/applications/Plotmtv1.4.1.tar.Z. The program has been compiled on IBM RS6000, Sun SPARC, as well as HP700 workstations. The X11 routines use the X11R4 Xlib library, but the program has reportedly been compiled successfully on X11R5. PLOTMTV is based on the DRAWPLOT, CONTOUR and PDRAW programs from U.C. Berkeley (yes, I'm responsible for those too!). PLOTMTV essentially combines all the capabilities of the three packages into one single package.
