Veusz is a scientific plotting package written in Python. It uses PyQt
for display and user-interfaces, and numarray for handling the numeric
data. Veusz is designed to produce publication-ready Postscript
output.
Veusz provides a GUI, command line and scripting interface (based on
Python) to its plotting facilities. The plots are built using an
object-based system to provide a consistent interface.
Changes from 0.8:
Please refer to ChangeLog for all the changes.
Highlights include:
* Contour support (thanks to the code of the matplotlib guys!)
* Undo/redo
* Rubber band axis zooming
* More flexible data importing
Features of package:
* X-Y plots (with errorbars)
* Contour plots
* Images (with colour mappings)
* Stepped plots (for histograms)
* Line plots
* Function plots
* Fitting functions to data
* Stacked plots and arrays of plots
* Plot keys
* Plot labels
* LaTeX-like formatting for text
* EPS output
* Simple data importing
* Scripting interface
* Save/Load plots
* Dataset manipulation
* Embed Veusz within other programs
To be done:
* UI improvements
* Import filters (for qdp and other plotting packages, fits, csv)
Requirements:
Python (probably 2.3 or greater required)
http://www.python.org/
Qt (free edition)
http://www.trolltech.com/products/qt/
PyQt 3 (SIP is required to be installed first)
http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/pyqt/

numarray
http://www.stsci.edu/resources/software_hardware/numarray
Microsoft Core Fonts (recommended)
http://corefonts.sourceforge.net/
PyFITS (optional)
http://www.stsci.edu/resources/software_hardware/pyfits
For documentation on using Veusz, see the "Documents" directory. The
manual is in pdf, html and text format (generated from docbook).
