I see t= hat it's free to use and to call from programs. However, that when it comes= to source code, it's available freely but there are caveats. I figured it'= d be easier to just ask: If I was to begin building a project, and wanted t= o use GnuPlot routines directly in C integrated into the program, how does = the licensing affect that. My plan, roughly, is a data processing program t= hat will be GNU GPL, run real basic ANSI C, GnuPlot code, and the other X11= stuff I need. Nothing fancy, not sure if it'll even materialize into anyth= ing with my day job and such. Anywho, thank you for the wonderful product, I've been tooling around with = it all afternoon musing on applications it could have in my project. - Matt
