Hi Nico: I am only able to answer some of your questions, but hopefully those answers will help you figure out the rest of it.

Those libraries (and also libqsastime which you didn't mention which means you should switch to the latest version of PLplot which is 5.9.5) are an intrinsic part of the PLplot software and are always built as part of the ordinary PLplot build. > how can i tell cmake to use my own tcl tk libraries ? Make sure your own versions of tclsh and wish are first on your PATH. Use the CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH and CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH environment variables appropriately. See http://www.miscdebris.net/plplot_wiki/index.php?title=Building_PLplot for more details. > > can i easily compile plplot on Win32 using MinGW/MSys building system ? Others have certainly been able to do this thanks to our CMake-based build system. See http://www.miscdebris.net/plplot_wiki/index.php?title=Building_PLplot and especially follow the "specifics for various platforms" link after reading the principal build page.
