Hi,
We need to draw 2D and 3D graphs on Decstation 5000 running Ultrix with
DecWindows, Tektronix terminals and HP LaserJet/Apple LaserWriter printers.
IMSL has a package Exponent Graphics for this, but quite expensive ($1575).
Anybody has experince with it? Is it good? Compare to IGL/AGII. Is there
any similar technical plotting library or fully menu driven package with
good price or in public domain? I attach some information of IMSL's
Exponent Graphics to this mail for reference.
Thank you for your advice in advance. Sorry if I post to a wrong group.
