        Biggles is a Python module for creating publication-quality 2D scientific
        plots. It supports multiple output formats (postscript, x11, png, svg, gif),
        understands simple TeX, and sports a high-level, elegant interface. It's
        intended for technical users with sophisticated plotting needs.
        
        Simple Example
        --------------
        
        Here's a simple biggles script::
        
            >>> import biggles
            >>> x = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
            >>> y = [5, 4, 3, 2, 1]
            >>> p = biggles.FramedPlot()
            >>> p.add(biggles.Curve(x, y))
            >>> p.show()
        
        This produces an X window with a framed plot of the curve y(x).
        You can find more in the `examples <https://github.com/biggles-plot/biggles/tree/master/examples>`_
        directory included with the source distribution. Also, see the `gallery <http://biggles-plot.github.io/biggles>`_
        on the web.
        
        See the full `documentation <https://github.com/biggles-plot/biggles/wiki>`_ for more details.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        Biggles requires `numpy <http://www.numpy.org/>`_ and GNU `plotutils <http://www.gnu.org/software/plotutils/>`_.
        
        **Macports**::
        
            $ sudo port install plotutils +x11
            $ pip install biggles
        
        **Homebrew**::
        
            $ brew install plotutils --with-x11
            $ pip install biggles
        
        **Debian/Ubuntu**::
        
            $ sudo apt-get libplot-dev plotutils
            $ pip install biggles
        
        **Windows**
        
        This kind of install is not well tested at the moment. Please report bugs if you find them!
