Description: GR - a universal framework for visualization applications
        =========================================================
        
        *GR* is a universal framework for cross-platform visualization
        applications. It offers developers a compact, portable and consistent
        graphics library for their programs. Applications range from publication
        quality 2D graphs to the representation of complex 3D scenes.
        
        *GR* is essentially based on an implementation of a Graphical Kernel
        System (GKS) and OpenGL. As a self-contained system it can quickly and
        easily be integrated into existing applications (i.e. using the
        ``ctypes`` mechanism in Python or ``ccall`` in Julia).
        
        The *GR* framework can be used in imperative programming systems or
        integrated into modern object-oriented systems, in particular those
        based on GUI toolkits. *GR* is characterized by its high
        interoperability and can be used with modern web technologies. The *GR*
        framework is especially suitable for real-time or signal processing
        environments.
        
        *GR* was developed by the Scientific IT-Systems group at the Peter
        Gruenberg Institute at Forschunsgzentrum Juelich. The main development has
        been done by Josef Heinen who currently maintains the software, but
        there are other developers who currently make valuable contributions.
        Special thanks to Florian Rhiem (*GR3*] and Christian Felder (qtgr,
        setup.py).
        
        Starting with release 0.6 *GR* can be used as a backend for
        `Matplotlib <http://matplotlib.org>`__ and significantly improve the
        performance of existing Matplotlib or PyPlot applications written in
        Python or Julia, respectively. In
        `this <http://gr-framework.org/tutorials/matplotlib.html>`__ tutorial
        section you can find some examples.
        
        Beginning with version 0.10.0 *GR* supports inline graphics which shows
        up in IPython's Qt Console or interactive computing environments for
        *Python* and *Julia*, such as `IPython <http://ipython.org>`__ and
        `Jupyter <https://jupyter.org>`__. An interesting example can be found
        `here <http://pgi-jcns.fz-juelich.de/pub/doc/700K_460.html>`__.
