You can download a .zip of the rangeplot program, along with source code, a Windows executable, and the above example dataset generously provided by Michael Comberiate. (Or if you prefer, a .tar.gz with UNIX line endings.)

Feel free to copy this program anywhere you like, or use for any purpose. It's public domain.

I've also written a little physics simulator using the Newton physics engine:
