Simple backend-independent plotting for PDL

PDL can plot through a plethora of external plotting modules. Each module tends to be less widely available than Perl itself, and to require an additional step or two to install. For simple applications ("throw up an image on the screen", or "plot a curve") it is useful to have a subset of all plotting capability available in a backend-independent layer. PDL::Graphics::Simple provides that capability.

PDL::Graphics::Simple implements all the functionality used in the PDL::Book examples, with identical syntax. It also generalizes that syntax - you can use ::Simple graphics, with slight syntactical differences, in the same manner that you would use any of the engine modules. See the Examples below for details.

The plot you get will always be what you asked for, regardless of which plotting engine you have installed on your system.
