This version of gnuplot represents the work of many people. For a more complete list read the RCS log on the top of makefile.unx. This version originally was centered on Jos Van Woude's probability functions, Don Tabor's discrete contour levels and Rob Cunningham's binary file IO capability. It has grown tremendously. Russell Lang and Maurice Castro added MS-Windows capability and much more. Roger Fearick added OS/2 capabilility. Alexander Lehmann and Hans-Edgar Koechling greatly improved Atari support. (There are also an OS-9 and PC-9801 versions of 3.2 and a Mac version of 3.0 and a multiple plot on a page mod which were not integrated into this release.) Eric Youngdale replaced the explicit function hidden line removal routines with a more general implicit bitmap (which requires more memory). Gershon Elber fixed many 3D bugs and added the "dgrid3d" option which takes allows scattered data to be contoured. Ed Kubaitis reworked the X11 support. In addition, many more devices are now provided. We have always added device drivers because we have no way to debug most of them and only by including them into the package we obtain feedback. In addition, we have begun a contrib subdirectory which contains external library, programs, and mods which help in the use of Gnuplot. Many of the diffs are now out of date and will take some work to implement. These contributions are not in any particular order. * Subject: Special Functions for Probability Densities Name: Jos van der Woude Email: jvdwoude@hut.nl * Subject: Discrete Contour Levels Name: Don Taber Email: news@solitary.stanford.edu,dbt@victoria.risc.rockwell.com * Subject: LN03p (Graphic Enhance Mode) Driver and REGIS fixes Name: Hung-chi Lihn Email: lihn@ssrl01.slac.stanford.edu * Subject: LESS-like additions to READLINE capability Name: Michal Tomczak, Tom Tkacik Email: ntomczak@vm.ucs.ualberta.ca,tkacik@hobbes.cs.gmr.com * Subject: doc2texinfo : Converts Gnuplot .doc files to Texinfo format.
