What I would like to do is draw a bunch of lines between pairs of coordinates (end points of the lines)
I've been doing this:
Open Inkscape, draw a line and set the color, size etc that I want. Then go to "edit -> XML Editor" and copy/paste my coordinates with an "M" in front of them from a text file


This works perfectly - but is there a way to automate it further - ie pass that text file of coordinates to inkscape from the terminal and produce a svg or png without ever opening inkscape? Or is there a better tool for this job?

Thanks,

Dave

Hi.

Have a look at this tool: http://home.gna.org/veusz/

It will plot anything - excellent program!
