I'm sorry for entering this discussion late, but does anyone remember 
the software called PSMathGraphsII by Mary Ann Software?  (It was last 
published around 1998.)  I always liked PSMGII.  Simple to use.  Easy 
to save as EPS.  One could even copy to the Clipboard as EPS to paste 
in a word processor (like ClarisWorks) as EPS.  Unfortunately, it's 
author, John Jacob <john.jacob at marin.cc.ca.us>, hasn't updated it for 
OS X.  Perhaps he could be persuaded to if enough folks indicate an 
interest.

Best regards,
---John.
