A new release of xyplot for Linux/X Windows is available
at

http://ccreweb.org/software/xyplot/xyplot.html

This version has been released early (i.e. before putting
in all desired changes) because it was essential to have
a version of xyplot which builds with GNU g++ 3.2/3.3.

Some interesting Forth aspects of xyplot 2.0.3 are:

-- the embedded Forth interpreter is kForth 1.2.10, still
considered a development version.

-- the structures package from gforth (struct.x) has been
adopted for the Forth to C++ interface. This breaks
compatibility with earlier Forth modules, but the revisions
are relatively trivial.

-- as before, xyplot is extensible by the user, who may
write Forth source modules to add functions to the
program.

A nice animation demo of wavepacket propagation in xyplot 2.x
demonstrates the use of the signals interface in kForth 1.2.10.
See the xyplot Page (link given above) for a link to the code
anim1.4th.
