The DBD::Chart provides a DBI abstraction for rendering pie charts, bar charts, box&whisker charts (aka boxcharts), histograms, Gantt charts, and line, point, and area graphs.
Installation
For Windows users, use WinZip or similar to unpack the file, then copy Chart.pm to wherever your site-specific modules are kept (usually PerlsitelibDBD for ActiveState Perl installations). Also create a 'Chart' directory in the DBD directory, and copy the Plot.pm module to the new directory. Note that you won't be able to execute the install test with this, but you need a copy of 'nmake' and all its libraries to run that anyway. I may whip up a PPM in the future.
For Unix, extract it with
gzip -cd DBD-Chart-0.80.tar.gz | tar xf -
and then enter the following: cd DBD-Chart-0.80 perl Makefile.PL make
