[Malvern] Direct Screen Access.

[Ian Pascoe]

Geoff

I certainly remember within the past month or so on LWN a couple of
libraries and graphing programs that have come up.

If your friend is programming this directly I'd suggest finding an
appropriate library otherwise, as you suggest, pipe the data to a file and
use the graphing program to display it.

Sorry, tied up on sorting a problem for work at the moment or I'd sit and
have a read for you!

Subject: [Malvern] Direct Screen Access.


Way back in the days of  DOS,  I used to use Borland Turbo Pascal,  and
could directly access the screen to plot graphs very rapidly.

A former colleague of mine is now running Red Hat Linux,  and wishes to
plot the graphical output of C programmes directly to screen.
He has asked for help.

Does anyone in either LUG indulge in such activities, or would like to
help ?

It would probably be simplest to write to a file, and then pipe it into
something like Gnuplot,  but there may be better ways.

Best regards to all.

Geoff.
