Perl5 interface to build chart graphics

This module is an attempt to build a general purpose graphing module that is easily modified and expanded. I borrowed most of the API from Martien Verbruggen’s GIFgraph module. I liked most of GIFgraph, but I thought it was to difficult to modify, and it was missing a few things that I needed, most notably legends. So I decided to write a new module from scratch, and I’ve designed it from the bottom up to be easy to modify. Like GIFgraph, Chart* uses Lincoln Stein’s GD module for all of its graphics primitives calls.
