Part I: GR Framework on Raspberry Pi
GR basic functionality

! lines, marker symbols, filled polygons and text with
corresponding attributes and transformations, cell arrays
! axes, grids, spline curves, error bars, surfaces, contours,
geometric forms, arrows, raster images, LaTeX equations
! device and platform independent output thru logical device
drivers or plugins
! import, export and printing of graphics
! interoperability with Qt and wxWidgets toolkits
