I frequently use Python's matplotlib to make figures. I've made my own perl module for making quick plots in perl using matplotlib. I've found matplotlib to make figures inconsistently, and requires a lot more time for me to switch between the languages. So my perl scripts make a python temp file, and execute it. It's not super-efficient, I know, but it saves me time in both writing scripts and reading documentation. Plotting a hash is very easy:

use Matplotlib::Simple 'plot';

plot({
    'output.filename'            => 'svg/single.barplot.svg',
    data    => { # simple hash
        Fri => 76, Mon    => 73, Sat => 26, Sun => 11, Thu    => 94, T
+ue    => 93, Wed    => 77
    },
    'plot.type'    => 'bar',
    xlabel        => '# of Days',
    ylabel        => 'Count (Applications)',
    title            => 'Rejections by Days',
});

My question: Should I put this module on CPAN?
