I'd like some free software to help me plot charts like the one from the ray tracer language comparison:

I was using Mathematica but its stopped working and an upgrade is £2,000. Are there Haskell bindings to any free libraries or even Haskell implementations that would make something like this painless?
There isn't anything for OCaml (that I'm not still writing ;-) so this might be a good opportunity to force me to do a little more Haskell. :-)

Chart has rather a complicated API. I've written a simpler API (but somewhat less flexible), if anyone's interested (Tim wasn't). My API is closer in complexity (of use) to matlab's plotting. -- David Roundy Department of Physics Oregon State University
