Hi Orion, all: I've just uploaded a new version of PDL-Graphics-PLplot to CPAN (v 0.57) which incorporates some fixes recently merged in from the the PDL source tree and also includes an improved plplot_library_tests.t.
This test now compiles and runs the C sources from the plplot examples directory and compares them to the perl equivalent output instead of using canned C output for comparison. This is currently only tested on Linux/Ubuntu! The compiling of these C sources may not work on Windows, for example. Best Regards, Doug Hunt dh...@ucar.edu Software Engineer UCAR - COSMIC, Tel.
