     On the octave-maintainers mailing we were wondering how hard an 
     eventual port of plotutils to gnu-win32 would be. Have you any idea 
     about?

     | I also like plotutils. Since our objective is adding general 
     graphics to
     | octave, I think we should try to design a more general graphics 
     class, from | which figures, plots (axis, line,...), buttons, text, 
     and other things
     | inherit. Following the lead of VIM (a VI replacement that also has a 
     GUI | version) we could declare the member functions in a 
     toolkit-independent
     | file, then include function definitions in toolkit-dependent 
     libraries of | thunks. 
     
     I took a quick look at plotutils and it doesn't seem to say that it 
     will work on win32 systems.  Does anyone know how hard it might be to 
     make it work with the gnu-win32 tools?
