I have just released PDL::Graphics::Gnuplot v1.4 to PAUSE.
Highlights:
- Many bug fixes and many compatibility updates.
- Thoroughly tested with Strawberry Perl under Microsoft Windows
(thanks, CM and JM)
- Updated documentation
Here are the release notes from the included POD:
Many thanks to Chris Marshall and Juergen Mueck, who both tested endless
variants as
we troubleshot bizarre IPC problems under Microsoft Windows with Strawberry
Perl.
- default to ascii data transfer under Microsoft Windows (Juergen's hang issue)
- do better at ignoring chatter on Microsoft Windows (intercept ascii data
prompts with a regexp)
- clean up test reporting
- deprecate gnuplot <4.6 and issue warning (and accommodate some missing
keywords)
- autoranging fix
- read_polygon fix
- Many small tweaks to make Microsoft Windows support better
- Updates to POD documentation
- Improved terminfo reporting
- mouse-enabled default terminals are detected properly (e.g. 'x11').
- includes "imag" and "points" for people who are used to
PDL::Graphics::PGPLOT.
- more careful I/O handling in the pipe
- Improved interrupt handling
- Sends output to gnuplot in chunks if necessary (gets around choking
limitations on some platforms)
- Allows specifying different commands than just "gnuplot" via environment
variable GNUPLOT_BINARY.
- Detects available terminal types from Gnuplot on initial startup.
- supports m?tics options with hash syntax
