Howdy Bros. Can anyone recommend a plotting package that can be called from Perl that does nicer line graphs than GD::Graph::lines? I'm looking for something that uses dithering to avoid jaggy lines, allows nicer fonts, etc. A for-pay package would be a possibility if not too expen$ive.

Thx...Steve

UPDATE

Hey thanks for all the suggestions! lin0's pointer to the earlier thread led me to Chart Director. It costs 99 bux, is customizable enough to satisfy any graph geek, installs as a perl module, and makes some really slick graphs. Has good, fast support to boot. I don't know how software like XRTgraph manages to sell $3K/year licenses with competition like that...
