Org plot is there for quick and easy plotting. I would recommend using babel with gnuplot source blocks. You can easily pass tables as data, and configure your plot as you wish. Unfortunately I have not done this recently, so I don't have any simple examples handy, but I'm sure there are plenty on Worg. Hope this helps, -- Suvayu Open source is the future. It sets us free.
