-svnstat uses a C++ interface to Gnuplot written by Rajarshi Guha. The

-(see below). The original code used for svnstat can be found in

-Changes made to the C++ Gnuplot interface files (gnuplot_i.hpp and
-gnuplot_i.cc):
-
-i) Changed filename gnuplot_i.hpp to gnuplot_i.h, and consequently
-   changed #include directive in gnuplot_i.cc.
-
-ii) Encapsulated the interface into namespace theplu::svnstat.
-
-iii) Added 'Id' tags in both files.
-
-iv) Changed the initial #ifndef/#define idiom to avoid potential
-   clash with the original implementation.
-
-v) gnuplot_i.h: Removed the 'using namespace std;' statement, since we
-   don't want to expose the std namespace to everyone using the
-   Gnuplot interface. This triggered subsequent changes to code lines
-   with string and vector<> usage.
-
-vi) Resolved signed/unsigned compiler warnings in gnuplot_i.cc on
-   lines 235, 278, 418, and 482
-
-vii) gnuplot_i.cc: Changed order of code in Gnuplot destructor, now
-   the pipe is closed first. I have not done a full scale
-   investigation on why this is needed, but on MacOSX the files are
-   removed before gnuplot plots data when the original code order is
-   kept.
