<h1>PGPLOT interface</h1>
<p>Included with giza are PGPLOT interfaces that aim to replicate the full public interface to PGPLOT. This means that giza can be compiled as a drop-in replacement for
libpgplot and libcpgplot. So older programs written using PGPLOT can be linked against giza with the source code unchanged, giving a modern
plotting library with antialiased lines, real fonts and PDF output. For the c library (libcpgplot) it also avoids the unnecessary linking against FORTRAN
necessary with the original libcpgplot so increases portability of code written in c.
The giza-PGPLOT API also aims to provide maximum backwards compatibility with PGPLOT (e.g., line styles,
greek letter escape sequences, etc.) so that codes can be transitioned with ease.</p>
<p>The status of the standard <a href="#libpgplot">Fortran</a> (libpgplot) and <a href="#libcpgplot">C</a> (libcpgplot) interfaces are given below. Contributions most welcome!</p>
