I'm not familiar with earlier Mac applications, however the calculator that comes with OX X (10.3 at least) appears to have an (undocumented) 2D graphic facility. Check /Applications/Calculator.app/Contents/Resources which should have a file Graphing-2D.calcview put into it. Put that (and any other interesting calcviews like the hex one) into the Plugins directory (sorry, folder). |

If I go into the Applications folder, I see th calculator, but no directories, just the App. On another note, I found a cool program called Q Graph at Versiontracker.com that is a little slow, but works well.

I got to it using Terminal, because I don't have much experience with Macs (yet). In Finder you have to Ctrl Click (or right click) on the Calculator application. In the context menu there will be an item that says something like Show Package Contents. That will let you see what the application's folder really contains. |

| Re: graphing calculator "Q Graph" is much better than the (now) included 2-D graph function.
