The Extensible Report Generator (ERG) is a set of perl object modules
that lets a user quickly develop object classes which can produce
very configurable reports with a minimal amount of development
effort.  The report generator class can easily be extended to produce
summary information besides just formatting data. The ERG can be
used for such things as "quick and dirty" types of reports, prototyping
of reports, producing information tables for HTML files, exploring
"what if" kinds of questions.

The ERG 1.13 is available in CPAN/authors/id/P/PH/PHOENIXL:

   extensible_report_generator_1.13.zip
   extensible_report_generator_1.13.readme


Here's an example of a very simple report produced by the report
generators, including the field headings and the summary lines.
