This library looks experimental, with only ascii bar plot support. If you want anything nicer you got to use an external package; even Emacs built-in Calculator uses gnuplot to draw functions and data. As for showing the plot, the babel code block I showed generates the following result section #+RESULTS: [[file:a.png]] Then you only need to make sure org mode shows images by calling `org-toggle-inline-images' and it's part of the buffer, if that wasn't clear. -- Daniel Fleischer
