What would be the best way to make that happen? Do we need a general Octave <-> Python interface, or can we just build bindings for matplotlib? How about a handle graphics compatible interface for Octave that uses matplotlib? The one major difficulty that I see is that matplotlib seems to only handle 2-d plotting.
I was curious about this and found this message on the Octave lists: http://www.octave.org/octave-lists/archive/octave-graphics.2005/msg00013.html I agree that matplotlib looks nice, but I know very little about python.Concerning 3d graphics, I never thought gnuplot was adequate anyway. What is the current perception of Octaviz (http://octaviz.sourceforge.net/)? Do you maintainers feel it has major potential for Octave, or only that it is an interesting side project? What can we do to make it better?
Thanks, Jonathan
