Graphics::Plotter module is the Perl implementation of the GNU plotutils' libplotter library - C++ function library for device-independent two-dimensional vector graphics. There is also libplot library, based on C code, but with C++ library you do not need to switch between plotters.

The plotutils distribution is written by Robert Maier (http://www.gnu.org/software/plotutils/plotutils.html). Descriptions of functions are based on Chapter 8 of plotutils info documentation.

The latest version of Graphics::Plotter perl module is available at CPAN.

The perl program can produce output in one of the following formats:

X - new window on an X Window System display
Xdrawable - existed X window or pixmap
PNM - This is "portable anymap" format (PBM, PGM and PPM)
GIF - Pseudo GIF (GIF format without LZW compression)
AI - Adobe Illustrator (parameter ai)
PS - idraw-editable Postscript (ps)
Fig - xfig-editable format (fig)
PCL - HP Printer Control Language format (pcl)
HPGL - HP Graphics Language (hpgl)
Tek - understood by Tektronix 4014 terminals (tek)
Metafile - device-independent GNU graphics format (meta)
