+From Spencer Buckner: GSEGrafix is a GNOME application which uses an
+anti-aliased GNOME canvas for creating scientific and engineering
+plots.  The program is written in C and reads ASCII parameter files
+and data files.  The parameter files contain keywords and
+corresponding arguments for specifying plot parameters (such as data
+file names, data file formats, plot type, plot style, axis type, axis
+labels, and more).  Eleven example plots, corresponding examples of
+Octave code or C code for creating the data files, and corresponding
+parameter files are included.  The program can be run from a terminal
+window or from a graphical user interface.
+
+The current version is @code{gsegrafix-1.0.5}. address@hidden
+added data files for address@hidden address@hidden, for use in becoming
+familiar with the program.  There are links to each of these files in
+the corresponding example descriptions.  The program includes an HTML
+help file, and an XML help file was added in this version.
+
+Version 1.0.6 is under development and includes two additional
+keywords: @code{background_color} and @code{background_image}.  The
+former enables the background color of the plot window to be specified
+as either white, the default, or black.  If black is chosen, the plot
+box, tick marks, axis labels, title, and text are white.  The keyword
address@hidden enables a background image, such as a map, to
+be displayed in the plot box. The image can be scaled in four
+different ways by specifying one of the parameter values:
address@hidden, @code{fill}, @code{scale}, or @code{zoom}.

+From Arun Persaud: XBoard is a graphical user interface to chess in

 An ongoing effort is to merge the code of XBoard and its so-called
 ``Winboard'' companion back into one code base and adapt it to use GTK
