# B Summary of differences between Pyxplot and gnuplot

Differences between Pyxplot & gnuplot

Pyxplot’s command-line interface is based loosely upon that of gnuplot, but does not completely re-implement the entirety of gnuplot’s command language. Moreover, Pyxplot’s command language includes many extensions of gnuplot’s interface. In this Appendix, we outline some of the most significant areas in which gnuplot and Pyxplot differ. This is far from an exhaustive list, but may provide a useful reference for gnuplot users.
