Hi phillips!

> Has anyone looked at interfacing it with octave?

Actually paul kienzile suggested some one [and once personally me] to take it 
up, for hacking it to Octave. But its got
to under go a total rewrite to 
C++ before we can access it to Octave. 

The other, nicer clean option will be interfacing Python-Octave, so that we 
could call generic python scripts from
Octave, and so by the same token call this matplotlib. This is will come at a 
terrible performance cost no matter.

So I guess we are left with the idea of rewriting matplotlib functions as 
C++ code, and interface it to Octave.

Im ready, to start.
Do we have friends?
Cheers
Muthu.
