package PDL::Graphics2D;
=head1 NAME
PDL::Graphics2D - An object oriented interface to PDL graphics
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use PDL::Graphics2D;
$win = PDL::Graphics2D->new(<Interface>, <Options>);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This is an umbrella class allowing for a simple interface to all plotting
routines in PDL. On its own it does not do any work it merely passes
information to the appropriate class. Ideally this should probably offer
a uniform interface to a variety of packages.
This requires a lot more work before it is useful I feel, but it can be
used already.
