What's new in Scilab 5.4.0 alpha 1?

This version introduces Scilab desktop which allows the user to save and restore his Scilab windows configuration.
In this context, strong efforts have been carried out on the graphical components:

XML access from Scilab has never been easier thanks to a new dedicated module to read and write XML files named XML.

Available in a future alpha or beta version of Scilab 5.4.0, an internal improvement of Scilab graphics will provide faster and better 2-D and 3-D plotting.
A future development release will also introduce Scilab preferences (unique interface to configure Scilab and its modules).
