This version of gnuplot represents the work of many people. For a more
complete list read the RCS log on the top of makefile.unx. This version
originally was centered on Jos Van Woude's probability functions,
Don Tabor's discrete contour levels and Rob Cunningham's binary file
IO capability. It has grown tremendously. Russell Lang and Maurice
Castro added MS-Windows capability and much more. Roger Fearick
added OS/2 capabilility. Alexander Lehmann and Hans-Edgar Koechling
greatly improved Atari support. (There are also an OS-9 and PC-9801 versions
of 3.2 and a Mac version of 3.0 and a multiple plot on a page mod
which were not integrated into this release.) Eric Youngdale replaced the
explicit function hidden line removal routines with a more general
implicit bitmap (which requires more memory). Gershon Elber fixed
many 3D bugs and added the "dgrid3d" option which takes allows
scattered data to be contoured. Ed Kubaitis reworked the X11 support.
In addition, many more devices are now provided. We have
always added device drivers because we have no way to debug most of
them and only by including them into the package we obtain feedback.
In addition, we have begun a contrib subdirectory which contains
external library, programs, and mods which help in the use of
Gnuplot. Many of the diffs are now out of date and will take
some work to implement.
