i don't even know what to say. This is so awesome. It's exactly what I
wished for with gadfly

I'm pleased to announce the availability of the Immerse package:

Immerse is designed to add a new layer of interactivity to Gadfly plots.
I've also posted two tutorial videos:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urM4SY92QTI
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ic5vj9hD-w
The second video in particular has "the fun stuff," and shows some features
I've long wished for in Julia: really good ways to go backwards from plotted
objects to the data underlying each object, so that one can figure out what's
going on in a complex, multidimensional data set.
It probably goes without saying, but Immerse is so new that you should expect
a certain amount of API churn as it evolves. In particular, I've already
changed one of the `hit` callback arguments since I filmed that second video
this morning :-). However, I personally find that it's already quite functional
and darned handy; I encourage you to start making use of it and see whether it
makes a difference in your work.
Despite my attempts to upload these videos to the JuliaLanguage youtube
channel, these seem to be going to my personal channel (which I didn't even
have, before now...). If anyone has any tips about how to transfer them, I'd
be grateful.
Best,
