TecPlot's no square
1 January 2006
It's some while since I last looked at TecPlot - more than two years, in fact, at release 9. A lot has happened in the time between. Version 10 will have come to market by the time readers see this article, though as I finalise it I have seen only as far as the final release candidate beta. It has been a different sort of ride from last time: Amtec (TecPlot's publisher) now keeps a very tight rein on beta access, with each version expiring just as its successor is issued, which made it impossible to risk the success or failure of a live project on the software.
