Another simple thing you can do is to call xlispstat (an interpreter)
from within ACL, it has a very powerful and indeed simple LINKED plot
system.

xlispstat is part of linux or you can download it from:
                
           http://ftp.stat.umn.edu/pub/xlispstat/

I highly recommend it!

I hope this is useful


  best regards
   Arturo
