This is good!  It's something that sooner or later we need to do.

You missed PIL (http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/). ;-) PyChart
(http://home.gna.org/pychart/) as well.  You can also use CSS
(http://applestooranges.com/blog/post/css-for-bar-graphs/?id=55).

Another alternative is using JavaScript and drawing everything by hand
(http://www.walterzorn.com/jsgraphics/jsgraphics_e.htm).

What TG needed badly -- I know somebody has to write it... -- is something
like iReport (http://jasperforge.org/sf/projects/ireport).  Take a look at the
screenshots and see the charts.

It works here.  What is happening for you?  Actually, it plots things.  It
isn't suitable to my needs because it has problems plotting negative numbers
and positioning the X axis (so far).

Indeed!  But it looks like generating the XML might be somewhat annoying
(thanks <your favorite deity here> we have Kid!).

Kid. ;-)  It can generate XML output.  It is just a matter of creating the
logic for those charts.  I'll need something like that soon.  And I found the
result VERY professional and interesting.  I might give it a try...
