It is installed as part of the package. On systems that support shared libraries, it is installed as a shared library. A C++ class library called libplotter, which provides an object-oriented interface to libplot’s functionality, is optionally installed as well. GNU libplot and libplotter support all the output formats mentioned above (X11, SVG, PNG, PNM, pseudo-GIF, WebCGM, Illustrator format, idraw-editable Postscript, PCL 5, Fig format, HP-GL/2, ReGIS, Tektronix, and GNU Metafile). They can produce animated pseudo-GIFs, and smooth, double-buffered animations on any X Window System display. The libplot imaging model is similar to Postscript’s. In any output format, they can draw the following. • Graphical objects such as lines, circles and ellipses, points, and marker symbols; also paths. A path is defined as
