What I need is to render the SVG files in my program without relying on a
browser
like IE. Inkscape seems to be a standalone vector graphics editor. Is there
any vector
rendering lib with a simple interface visualizing a vector graphics file,
like SVG?

I believe the combinition of your plot lib + any svg rendering lib will
greaty make life
easier and happier. :-)
Thank you.
