OK I checked on my Ubuntu system with libcpgplot0 v 0.9.5-1 and libgiza0 0.9.5-1 package versions:
test1 - incorrect colours test2 - no cursor interaction with user, missing markers test3 - missing histogram fill test4 - missing grayscale image test6 - missing contour map test7 - missing surface plot test8 - missing markers test9 - no cursor interaction test10 - missing background image test11 - passed! test12 - incorrect colour levels fill on contours, missing special axis. So that is only 1/12 correct. Passing the perl/PGPLOT test suite is not the same as ‘not crashing’. Do you see my point now? I can not use this for my scientific codes. Karl p.s there are also some annoying issues with the XW driver. > On 27 Jul 2018, at 4:13 pm, Karl Glazebrook <[email protected]> wrote: > > OK I will check on that.
