I apologize to the c experts for this Perl, :-), but it's so easy for
me to prototype in Perl. Here is an example of what you can do on
the Goo::Canvas.

I simulated the beat pulse with a weird sine wave, but it should show you
how nice it could work. The axis are a bit extra, but I already had this
example, to show how to invert the y axis direction to get a standard cartesian
plot, i.e. y increases going up. 
I also took the liberty of making a recursive sub call for this demo, but it
should'nt be hard to feed in real data.  Of course, c will be faster, but
it's up to you to port it, if you like it.
