Piotr, If you have the appropriate -dev package(s) installed, then the following should get you started: gcc `pkg-config --cflags --libs plplotd` x01c.c -o x01 x01c.c is one of the examples included with PLplot. The examples are included under one of the /usr/share/doc/*plplot* directories, though I do not remember which. The same basic command should work for other code as well as long as you include any extra required options for other libraries you use. Hope this helps, Hez ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
