ePiX is an extremely cool and powerful little C++ library to allow you to generate eepic (and, from there, pdf, eps, or other) images. Amongst other things, it’s useful for, say, generating plots for a math presentation. This is wicked cool functionality, and it’s actually quite straightforward. The only issue is that, for most people, C++ isn’t exactly the most accessible language¹.

So it occurred to me, someone should write a Ruby wrapper for ePiX. That someone should probably be me. Plus, it’ll probably give me some opportunity to explore the C side of Ruby, which would be cool. So maybe I’ve got (yet another) project now :-P

¹ There is, as noted on the ePiX page, a Python wrapper called pyepix
