Title: Re: paleonet Graphing software recommendation

Hi Phil,

The programs mentioned are pretty good and would likely do the trick, but If your using a mac, you might take a look at Aabel.  

It’s very good at statistics (including cluster, PCA, etc...), has excellent graphics, including 3-D graphics, and some very geo/paleo friendly graphing features like rose diagrams, spherical plots, vertical strip logs, ternary plots and much more.

Greetings,

I'm looking for a graphing program that produces publication-quality graphs, that is capable of interfacing with Excel, and that handles most graph formats (including second or third Y-axes, easy histograms, rose diagrams, 3-D, etc.).  Current recommendations include SigmaPlot (excellent graphics, but expensive and steep learning curve), Delta Graph (heard new version is "buggy"), and Grapher.

Do you have any recommendations?  (I'll be glad to post responses if there is interest.)

Sincerely,
Phil
