Dependencies

• For PDF output you need to install the fig2dev system package.

• For LaTeX display you need a working LaTeX installation; for instance install the texlive system package.

• For using the Gnu Scientific Library, install the gsl opam package:

opam install gsl

• For rendering via the OCaml Graphics library (currently not recommended), you need to use the oplot-graphics opam package.
