[vox-tech] slightly-OT : OSS to find peaks in dataset

[Dylan Beaudette]

Hi everyone,

I a wondering if anyone on the list has used some open source software to 
locate local maxima in a data set. would something like octave do this?

here is an example dataset, (plotted with gnuplot of course)

any ideas would be appreciated!!

cheers,
