in reply to Portable simple line graph module?

For this kind of problem, I interface perl with gnuplot, ie I treat data and generate gnuplot command files with perl and then create postscript pictures using gnuplot.

Hope this helps.

    Hi, I understand your suggestion, but this does not solve the real problem I have, i.e. the portability. gnuplot needs to be installed as well and even more in a win32 environment you need execution (.exe) permissions (which not everyone gives)! A more portable solution I was working on some time ago was with the precompiled versions of netpbm, but I could not use it on some win webspaces as they are blocking .exe files...

    This is the reason of my request to have something simple and portable (pure perl, with some intelligent html as done in the chart plotting module)!
