Re: Failure to install PDL::Graphics::Simple on Windows 10

Note also, to prevent further disappointment, PDL::Graphics::Simple is mentioned only briefly in the "First steps" chapter, but further ahead almost 100 pages describe, in detail, PDL::Graphics::PGPLOT and PDL::Graphics::PLplot. Which I'm not sure are easy/possible to be used in Windows. It's either time to setup a double boot, or get ready to adjust all examples of "PDL Book" to PDL::Graphics::Gnuplot (installed with Strawberry).

Recently a lot of work has been done by the mighty Zaki Mughal on the PDL interfaces to Gnuplot, PGPLOT and PLplot to improve their continuous integration on GitHub. At least the Gnuplot and PLplot ones work great on Windows, and the PGPLOT one is a work in progress to get it also working there. I'd say PDL::Graphics::Simple will therefore not only work on Windows, but you have at least a couple of options of driver. Please give it a go and report any problems!	[reply]
