-Description: Interactive Graphics Language Editor
- GLE  is  a  high  quality  graphics  package for scientists,
- combining  a  user  friendly  interface with a full range of
- facilities    for   producing  publication  quality  graphs,
- diagrams, posters and slides.
+Description: Graphics Layout Engine
+ GLE is a graphics scripting language designed for creating publication
+ quality figures such as charts, plots, graphs, and diagrams. It
+ supports various chart types (including function plot, histogram, bar
+ chart, scatter plot, contour plot, color map, and surface plot) through
+ a simple but flexible set of graphing commands; more complex output can
+ be created by relying on its scripting language, which is full featured
+ with subroutines, variables, and logic control.
  .
- GLE  provides LaTeX quality fonts together with a flexible
- graphics  module  which  allows  the  user  to  specify  any
- feature  of a graph (down to the line width of the subticks,
- for example)
- .
- Complex  pictures can be drawn with user defined subroutines
- and simple looping structures.
- .
- Current  device  drivers support DECWINDOWS, REGIS, TEK4010,
- all  PC  graphics  cards,  VT100s,  HP-Plotters,  PostScript
- Printers, EPSON Printers and LaserJet Printers.
- .
- GLE  runs  on  both  VAXes and PCs, giving an identical user
- interface on both platforms.
+ GLE relies on LaTeX for text output and supports mathematical formulae
+ in graphs and figures. Output formats include (E)PS, PDF, JPEG, and PNG.
