`PyQwt <http://pyqwt.sourceforge.net/>`_ is a solid library for plotting
49+
numerical data. It is built on top of the popular `PyQt <http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/software/pyqt/intro>`_ GUI framework.
50+
It typically has better performance than matplotlib, but the range of built-in
51+
chart/plot types is slightly smaller than matplotlib.
