Data analyses and visualization. Visualization - mainly 2d, flexible and 
high-quality. Also, calculations with matrices, etc. Knows a lot of 
special functions (due to gsl).

I tried (a little) 3 latest versions. They compile and (seem to) work OK 
on my x86 box. Somebody tried it on amd64, also seems OK. The ebuild is 
very simple, does not need patches etc. - just compiles and works (I think 
this is very good - any complications in an ebuild are the future headache 
when a new version will appear).
