Perhaps you and/or Marco will help me figure out a pascal graphics issue.

I've looked at the Gnu Plotutils libplot library. It seems to provide 
the capabilities fpimage, fpcanvas, etc. provide in fpc's new pre-2.0 
release (I don't really know)??

I only ask because binding pascal to libplot seemed like a simple 
enough, yet meaningful project for me. When browsing the web I found this;

http://www.nl.freepascal.org/lists/fpc-pascal/2004-April/006907.html

I like the versatility of Gnu libplot. But appreciate advice. You all 
move so fast.

Thanks,
Rick.
