KnotPlot is freeware to visualize, manipulate, and physically simulate mathematical knots in three and four dimensions.  Knots can be loaded from a database of almost 3000 knots, created using a tangle calculator, via transformations or sketched by hand in three dimensions. It uses the OpenGL API and GLUT and runs on Win32, Linux, Mac OS X and IRIX. The new release adds 1,672 new knots with nice symmetries, command line editing and new demos.
