I don't know which is best but some options are listed here: http://wiki.python.org/moin/UsefulModules#head-a7e459aeb7e5672e6d431e972a3121670c4dcf1c > > 2.

The Python modules are generally oriented towards a Python API where you pass the data to the plot package directly, rather than creating a file. Under the hood some of them do exactly what you describe; I think gnuplot.py works that way. Kent -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
