title: Scilab - real time plot from serial port
body: <p>I am trying to make a program in SciLab that would make a real time plot from data received from serial port. 
  My idea is to execute new <em>plot</em> function after every single portion of data received. But I think it is too much work for the computer and SciLab will not work properly and miss data.</p>
  
  <p>Do you know some option to plot real time data from serial COM port? SciLab or another free program?</p>
