the main developer seems to have lost interest and the folks he left the
source code with aren't exactly responsive or making much progress in
recent times.

i did some modifications to improve rtgpoll (not rtgplot) performance
and features:

http://mu.org/~billf/yrtg/

but the patches don't apply to the current cvs tree. the diff is probably
as large as the codebase for rtgpoll itself. my commit access to rtg was
denied (?) so any future work i do will be a fork.
