A community for the timeless and infinitely powerful editor. Want to see what Emacs is capable of?!
nowadays, I don't see why anyone would use gnuplot instead of matplotlib.
Because I already know it well and I don't have the time / want to put myself learning matplotlib or other plotting tools.
One could run gnuplot in mind to draw a graph with very limited lines, but impossible to get such a job done with large amount of matplotlib's code.
