Use Gnuplot. By default it will draw graphs to an X11 display but you can
generate jpeg or postscript output easily too by issuing commands such
as
set terminal postscript solid color
set output 'graph.ps'
plot 'whatever'
Type help set terminal for the options.
You can script the commands too and invoke them using load 'script.gp' or by
just calling it from the command line.
Gnuplot is fab. I use it a lot.
Enjoy!
