      Name: gri
      Version: 2.12.18
      Category: science graphics
      Platform: darwin
      Maintainers: dal.ca:dan.kelley neu.edu:j.stalnaker
      Description: A scientific graphics programming language
      Long Description: Gri is a language for scientific graphics programming. The word "language" is important: Gri is command-driven, not point/click. Some users consider Gri similar to LaTeX, since both provide extensive power in exchange for patience in learning syntax. Gri can make x-y graphs, contour graphs, and image graphs, in PostScript and (someday) SVG formats. Control is provided over all aspects of drawing, e.g. line widths, colors, and fonts. A TeX-like syntax provides common mathematical symbols.
