Author Any alternative to BGOK graphics package for VW ?

We have a requirement for more sophisticated control over labels when
scaling axis and have found the XY graph capabilities in BGOK limiting.

Could someone please point me to a package/parcel which either wholly
implements more sophisticated graphing then BGOK or one that interfaces
an external library. Although primary deployment platform is Windows, a
cross platform solution is preferred. Would love an open source solution
however a commercial ones will also be considered.

Suggestions or comments appreciated.

regards Denis

P.S. We have contemplated interfacing to Excel and found similar
limitations.

Thomas Gagne has wrapped VW around some of Gnuplot's functionality (which I think should give you a bit more control than BGOK). You can read more about it here:
