Well, if you intend to start a flame war on the lists... but enough on that.
presumably if you are doing scientific computations, you probably have
access to a commercial compiler?
Oh, we do. Consider an project with a timeline of many years or even
decades of years. would you choose a non onepn source (commercial)
compiler/debugger for that project? I'm pretty sure, you won't.
also shouldnt users be using programs like xmgrace
Talking about commerical applications from your point of view - why use
free software for data analysis when powerful commercial packages like
IDL are available?
