Here we probably need a reality check.  What is the most humongous
single Gwyddion function, more than 60% larger than any other module?
Yes, the image export.  It is several times larger than some other
things I already consider monstrosities.  And people still keep asking
for additional features and options.

So I doubt any ‘simple function’ would do.  It would end up as a major
project for sure.  In addition, the most natural implementation for me,
writing a TeX document and then having an actual well-designed
typesetting system typeset the entire thing, would unlikley make
non-Unix users happy.

While I do not say it is completely impossible or against my religion or
anything, I must say I find the idea of spending time with this pretty
unattractive – as opposed to experimenting with some interesting new
data processing methods.  I wish good luck to anyone who endeavours to
implement it.

Yeti
