Moth

A 2D Graphing Application

Documentation

Moth is an application to graph data in two dimensions. It can read from different data sources (currently text files, rrd files, and mysql databases). It's built on libart and freetype, so the text and drawing are anti-aliased and the colors support alpha levels.

16 Mar 2004 -- version 0.5.3 released: Just a quick little release to fix an important bug. Until now, datetime axis locations (grids and labels and snap-to) where calculated using simple modulus math, which is to say it didn't take into account leap years, leap seconds, timezones, etc. Ouch! This release fixes that.
14 Sep 2003 -- version 0.5.2 released: Well, I have a job now, so here's a release of the features that have been in CVS for a while but not packaged up into a nice tarball.
12 June 2003 -- version 0.5.1 released: This release is mainly inspired by the fix for bug #753368. No cool new features this time.
12 June 2003 -- version 0.4.3 released: Just one bugfix (#753368) in this release, but it's an important one.
08 May 2003 -- version 0.5.0 released: Continuing with the "even is beta, odd is alpha" release numbering scheme, we present to you version 0.5.0 of moth, an alpha release introducing new features.
25 Jan 2003 -- version 0.4.2 released: OK, so I wrote a test framework, and uncovered a bunch (13) of bugs. This release fixes 12 of them. (The last one is a bit trickier, and will await an alpha release.)
This is only a bugfix release. No new features have been added.
26 Dec 2002 -- version 0.4.1 released: A quick fix for specifying the location of the RRD library when configuring.
12 Dec 2002 -- version 0.4 (beta) released: This is the first beta release. Given the low number of bugs reported (and the creeping featurism) it's perhaps time to freeze a version for release. (Development will continue on a different track.)
In this we've included a bunch of cleanups, refactoring, documentation, and a few features. Much thanks to Ian Holsman for the new configure script, which provides greater support for finding (or specifying) the location of the libraries Moth relies upon.
14 Oct 2002 -- release 0.3 out: Buncha new features, and a few bug fixes and code cleanups. Getting close to beta, just need to cure this featuritis :)
19 Sep 2002 -- better documentation: Better documentaiton of both the XML and the RPN language.
12 Sep 2002 -- new website: Presenting a website for Moth, mainly inspired by my brother's complaint "where are the screenshots?" Basic stuff, but the documentation is just a placeholder for now.
