Re: CCL:CCL:Unix program to plot energy maps



Tim Pearson's PGPLOT library is a set of Fortran and C callable routines
 that are widely used in the astronomy community, and which has contour
 labeling capability.  There are a number of programs which implement CLI
 and GUI interfaces to the library, as well as APIs for Octave, PERL,
 Python, TCL, and Yorick.  For details, see
 	http://astro.caltech.edu/~tjp/pgplot/
 I compiled the library easily under HP-UX, and there are also Linux
 binary distribution packages for e.g. Debian and Redhat.
 CLI == command line interface
 GUI == graphical user interface
 API == application program interface
