Thanks guys, Yes a CPAN build of PDL::Graphics::Gnuplot seems to work well under Windows XP with Strawberry Perl 5.12.1. That's even with Gnuplot 4.4, which was installed when I installed Python(x,y). Running the PDL demo works but the plot title's have some gibberish mixed in ( http://www.public.asu.edu/~jtrujil1/scrap/pdl_gnuplot.PNG). Maybe that's just because I'm using an old version of Gnuplot.
The Prima demo works well, but hangs at the end of the demo. Doesn't kill PDL though. Installation was painless. By "Best" I meant the most painless way to get something going. Looks like both packages are doing well on Windows XP. I like Gnuplot a lot too, and I'm glad it was ported to PDL. Really helps make the system portable.
