[Sheflug] Scientific Progs

[nospam [at] cliffestones.demon.co.uk]

Well after my complaint about the lack of scientific software for
GNU/Linux I just thought I'd better a little bit of that back. I've
just finished the lab report I mentioned, it's about 7K words and all I
can say is Lyx is ace. How do people write such things in Word,
Star writer and the like. I imagine I'll now get some heckling from the
true LaTeX jedis in the audience, but hey I'm only a beginner in these
things. Anyway all I need now is some software to plot my graphs. 

I looked up Ptolemy which Chris mentioned, it looks cool but it's not
really what I'm after, it's more of a dsp tool kit. Scigraphica is next
on my list. 

I apologise for this mostly irrelevant posting 

Simon.
