I tried to install the PDL::Graphics::Gnuplot module
Yet it is not working properly under my win 64 OS
the shell throw's warnings every where, something about
gnuplot not being found in the CUDA toolkit ???
strange ...
It would be nice to get CUDA working with Gnuplot tho !
especially for the 3d Graphics ... : {
Cheers
-Mark
