TEMPO2 Plugins
Tempo2 was designed so that it can be easily extended using "plugin" software developed by outside users. These plugins can be written in C or C++ and can link with external libraries such as PGPLOT, tcl/tk, qt etc. Some of the most recent plugins are listed below. Feel free to add new plugins to this list.

The above plugins are very much "research" plugins, meaning that the code is complicated, hard to read and includes chunks of commented-out code and other comments. Feel free to write a better version!
