Thanks once more. I've been trying it and it seems way more interactive
than Gnuplot -- which I happen to like a lot, but Openmath seems more
appropiate for dynamic graphs. I like especially the option to save the
picture.
I have yet not found a way to produce embedded graphics in TeXmacs. If I
do, I'll post it for the records.
Denís.
