Subject: [ruby-talk:23959] Creating charts from Ruby

Hi,

I need to create some charts from Ruby scripts and there seems to be quite
a few options. Anyone got a recommendation for a simple but powerful way
to do it?

I need professional looking bar, lines and area charts.

Ruby/GD seems to be the most up-to-date and complete solution but there
are no ready-made convenience classes for doing charts; its only
low-level stuff. Then there are a number of possible solutions:

GD::Graph
libplot
Ruby/Gnuplot
Ruby/PGPlot
Ruby/GDChart

Recommendations anyone?

/Robert
