I think that something like plotutils or gnome-print (and the canvas)
is going to be our best option. This is on the nearish-term todo
list, and a friend of mine and I might be diving into it.
In the end I'm not going to be happy with just static plots (or
reports). In the long run, I'd like to see if we can have the same
functionality that the proprietary competitors have had for a long
time, things like being able to click on a line in a report to take
you to the transaction in the appropriate ledger, and being able to
click on a part of a chart to bring up a more detailed view or take
you to a transaction ledger (or report) for the items relevant to that
part.
This will require more internal interconnection than we can get from
launching a sub-process like gnuplot, or even plotutils' separate
graph process, so it'll have to be an internal solution.
