Thanks for fixing this orientation problem, and I agree resizes of x03c with either wxwidgets or xwin look good now. However, as a top priority could you finalize the fix in a cross-platform way for the randomized name issue? I worked pretty hard on that to make a nanosecond timer patch that works for the Debian stable case, but most of the rest of it (test that the patch works on CentOS, and using a Windows variant of a nanosec timer) must be done by you. As a very much lower priority, I noticed that the aspect ratio was coming out wrong (circles were being turned into ellipses) for one of the pages you get from running examples/c/x14c -dev wxwidgets Both xwin and xcairo give circles for this case. I have updated https://sourceforge.net/p/plplot/bugs/151/ accordingly. For the record (although I don't think we should do anything about this now) I also noticed that the -a option (to change the aspect ratio of plots) was not working correctly for several different devices including xwin, xcairo, and wxwidgets. I am pretty sure this used to work properly, but the last time I checked that was a long time ago so I have no idea whether this is an ancient regression or some regression caused by more recent changes.
