Xmgr is an XY plotting tool for workstations or X-terminals using X. A few
of its features are:

    User defined scaling, tick marks, labels, symbols, line styles, colors.
    Batch mode for unattended plotting.
    Read and write parameters used during a session.
    Polynomial regression, splines, running averages, DFT/FFT,
        cross/auto-correlation.
    Hardcopy support for PostScript, HP-GL, and FrameMaker .mif format.

While xmgr has a convenient point-and-click interface, most parameter
settings and operations are available through a command line interface.

Rolf Niepraschk (niepraschk@ptb.de) has ported xmgr to VMS, with some
assistance from me (John.Hasstedt@sunysb.edu).

You can get it from:

Sources: ftp://plasma-gate.weizmann.ac.il/pub/xmgr4/src/xmgr-4.0.1.tar.gz

or at any of the mirror sites:

ftp://ftp2.netmor.com/pub/mirrors/xmgr4           (Israel)
ftp://fire.mpi-stuttgart.mpg.de/pub/mirrors/xmgr4 (Germany)
ftp://abragam.med.utoronto.ca/pub/mirrors/xmgr4   (Canada)
ftp://wauug.erols.com/pub/X-Windows/xmgr4         (USA)

Not all of our changes made it into the release.  To compile, you need
to get four files from http://nuclear.physics.sunysb.edu/~manager/tmp/.
pars.c and lmdif1.c go in the [.src] directory, missing_math.* go in
the [.src.vms] directory.
