Plotting with PSTricks



Hi Zajcev san,

Thanks for using imaxima.el. I am maintaining it for a while.

So, your idea is to generate plotted graphics and render it
inlined within Emacs buffer. Sounds really great!!

I am sure there is no such thing today. Here are my 2 cents:
1) You could start with imaxima-imath-0.94 as the base for your project.
2) The function imaxima-make-image in imaxima.el could be modified
to generate a graph image when passed a command of plot2d() or plot3d().
Then chances that are you don't have to modify other part of imaxima.

Happy hacking!
