Requirements

Gtkmm-PLplot can only be installed provided the following dependencies are present on your system:

Gtkmm (4.x) and its (long list) of dependencies
PLplot, including its C++ bindings. The minimum required version is 5.11.0.
A C++ compiler with full support of the C++17 standard. Compilers known to do the job are recent versions of GCC and clang.
Boost (optional)

Downloading the software

The source code release tarballs are hosted on the Github repository, in the releases section. Just get the latest tarball and run the following commands:

 tar xfvz gtkmm-plplot-x.y.tar.gz
 cd gtkmm-plplot-x.y
 mkdir build ; cd build
 meson
 ninja
 ninja install

Alternatively, use ./configure, make and make install, but support for GNU Autotools is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

Homebrew

Homebrew users can install Gtkmm-PLplot via my tap:

‍brew install tschoonj/tap/gtkmm-plplot
