Re: Handle graphics plotting functions

I think the question is one of extensibility.  Emacs (as an example)
would be much less useful to me if the design were such that I had to
ask Emacs developers for new functionality.  Likewise for Octave, TeX,
Linux (via kernel modules), anything with a plug-in interface, etc.
Just about any software.  I don't think gnuplot has the right design
to support real extensibility through either an extension language or
a plug-in interface.
