I did e-mail this, but others may be interested ... Contour 81 is a shareware contour plotting application for the Mac. A practical application example: this type of program is used to plot isotherms, equipotential lines, and the like from three column data files or numerical results. This is something the Cricket Graphs of the world don't handle. I don't know enough about contour plotting to post a critical evaluation. I do know that good packages are rare enough that the engineers in our organization use a home-brewed graphics package for this sort of output. It would be interesting for someone who has used this application to post a review; while there are excellent contour plotting packages on mainframes, many engineers would love to tap the convenience of the laserwriter for this application.
