I really like gnuplot. It's not particularly tight integration, with
the bindings usually
connecting via a pipe, but gnuplot itself is very mature; generates
clean plots
with lots of options to get it looking just right. Finally, it has a
multitude of output formats
including SVG - which is nice if you have needs for post-plot
beatutification, or other
enhancement.
