Surprisingly, the command to plot solutions of odes is much better and more interactive than Mathematica’s despite the interface being “uglier”.

  It uses gnuplot I think as its frontend. Gnuplot is quite powerful if you understand it and can trick it correctly. Regarding the interface being ugly it kinda also depends on which graphical frontend gnuplot is using, there are multiple. I like the Qt one.

      Except when it doesn't work. I tried using it a few months ago on both Windows and WSL, but I had to give up and resort to run a Maxima kernel on EIN.¹ I was going to try again before commenting, but I broke my WSL setup last week and didn't have time to fix it yet, but I sure will try it again next month. ¹ http://millejoh.github.io/emacs-ipython-notebook/ http://millejoh.github.io/emacs-ipython-notebook/
