I have sent Mr. Hoffmann a short description of three programs which will
certainly fill these requirements, but I don't want to repeat myself.
Here's the condensed version:
	1. IDL from Research Systems, Denver
	2. PV-WAVE, from Precision Visuals, Boulder, CO (basically a
	   repackaged IDL).
	3. Mathematica, from Wolfram Research, Champaign, Ill. The new
	   Version 2 is supposed to be much better than the current one.
I personally use IDL and Mathematica and can verify that they work under
X, support Postscript output, and do all kinds of 2d and 3d plots. Of
course they also do much more.
