FuncPlotter is a combined Java application and applet for displaying two-dimensional plots of explicit functions in one variable (i.e., functions of the form y = f(x), where f(x) is an arbitrary function composed from a set of common mathematical operators).

Up to 20 functions can be plotted simultaneously, and sets of functions can be loaded and saved.

What's New in This Release:
Bug fixes:

An exception is no longer thrown when an attempt is made to paste a bogus URL into the Directory field in the Preferences dialogue. (The Java implementation for Windows has a bug/feature that, when text is copied from a text field to the clipboard, denotes the text as a URL.)

Modifications:

A default location for the configuration file has been introduced: there are now three possible locations for the configuration file when FuncPlotter is run as an application. If there a system property with the key app.configPath, FuncPlotter looks for a configuration file in the directory specified by that property; otherwise, it looks for a configuration file in the current working directory ($PWD on Linux/UNIX platforms) before trying the default directory, which is ${user.home}/.puckfist/funcplotter, where ${user.home} is the user's home directory ($HOME on Linux/UNIX platforms). If the configuration has changed when you exit the application, a configuration file is written to the location from which one was read at startup, or, if no configuration file was read, to the default directory.
