Different remarks about gnuplot development

Hans's note:

Once we have lua in place it should not be that difficult to make a mechanism that works as follows:

  • context calls gnuplot and opens a socket
  • and starts waiting for gp to finish
  • when gnuplot needs dimensions it talks back via the socket
  • tex executes the command send by the socket
  • etc

it needs some thinking but i thing that it is possible
