Manual for Package \PGFPlots\\

\maketitle
\begin{abstract}%
\PGFPlots\ draws high--quality function plots in normal or logarithmic scaling with a user-friendly interface. The user supplies axis labels, legend entries and the plot coordinates for one or more plots and \PGFPlots\ applies axis scaling, computes any logarithms and axis ticks and draws the plots, supporting line plots, piecewise constant plots, bar plots and area plots. It is based on Till Tantau's package \PGF/\Tikz.
\end{abstract}

\section{Introduction}
This package provides tools to generate plots and labeled axes easily. It draws normal plots, logplots and semi-logplots. Axis ticks, labels, legends (in case of multiple plots) can be added with key-value options. It can cycle through a set of predefined line/marker/color specifications. In summary, its purpose is to simplify the generation of high-quality function plots, especially for use in scientific contexts (logplots).
It is build completely on \Tikz\ and \PGF\ and may be used as \Tikz\ library.
\section{Upgrade remarks}
This release provides a lot of improvements which can be found in all detail in \texttt{ChangeLog} for interested readers. However, some attention is useful for upgrades, which does especially affect style options: although |\tikzstyle| is still supported, you should replace any occurance of |\tikzstyle| with |\pgfplotsset{|\meta{style name}|/.style={|\meta{key-value-list}|}}| or the associated |.append style| variant. See section~\ref{sec:styles} for more detail.
\section{Acknowledgements}
I thank God for all hours of enjoyed programming. I thank Pascal Wolkotte, author of package |pgfgraph|, who joined development and contributed code for axis lines and tick alignment. Furthermore, I thank Dr.~Schweitzer for many fruitful discussions and Dr.~Meine for his ideas and suggestions.
Last but not least, I thank Till Tantau and Mark Wibrow for their excellent graphics (and more) package \PGF\ and \Tikz\ which is the base of \PGFPlots.
