Thread: [Matplotlib-users] Add support for Smith charts

Hello,
I created a project for plotting nice Smith Charts with matplotlib. I followed the projection example. I put my code into a git
repo on github: https://github.com/vMeijin/pySmithPlot
Iwanted to ask, if there is any interest in putting this functionality into the main library. If so, I would try to adapt my
code and make a pull request, but it would be wasted time, if no one is considering to accept it.

Those are some very nice looking plots there.  Personally, I have never
heard of smith plots, and wouldn't know what the use case would be, but I
think we could definitely include most, if not all of it into mpl.  At the
very least, the projection itself is quite interesting and might be cool to
add.

Those charts are super-good looking !

  It's been a few years since I had heard that name, but now I remember 
a bit the few undergrad courses I got on HF electronics and transmission 
lines.

For the inclusion, I feel it should, at the very least, be in the gallery.
