Because of Unisys patents, GD no longer supports GIF directly. I have
therefore moved GIFgraph into a new name space as GD::Graph. GIFgraph
continues to exist as a wrapper around GD::Graph, but requires a
conversion of PNG to GIF (default implentation uses Image::Magick) if
used with a GD version 1.20 or above. See GIFgraph 1.20 README file
for details.
Extract from README:
This is GDGraph, a package to generate charts, using Lincoln Stein's
GD.pm. See the documentation for some history and more information.
The latest release is available from CPAN:
http://www.cpan.org/.
INSTALLATION
needed to install (also see TESTED PLATFORMS):
perl 5.005
GD >= 1.19 (recommended >= 1.23)
GD::Text::Align (part of the GDTextUtils package)
[snip]
Documentation is, as normal, available as pod in the main module.
