Plot

Plotting interface and wrapper for several plotting packages.

First, clone the package, and get any plotting packages you need:

Pkg.clone("https://github.com/JuliaPlot/Plot.jl.git")
Pkg.clone("https://github.com/tbreloff/Qwt.jl.git")   # requires pyqt and pyqwt
Pkg.add("Gadfly")  # might also need to Pkg.checkout("Gadfly") and maybe Colors/Compose... I had trouble with it

Now load it in:

using Plot

Do a plot in Qwt, then save a png:

plotter(:Qwt)
plot(1:10)
savepng(ans, Plot.IMG_DIR * "qwt1.png")

which saves:

Do a plot in Gadfly, then save a png:

plotter(:Gadfly)
plot(1:10)
savepng(ans, Plot.IMG_DIR * "gadfly1.png", 6Gadfly.inch, 4Gadfly.inch)

which saves:
