John,

The chart reports include an option on the Display tab, Show table, which will 
include the data table. Checking that option displays the data upon which the 
chart is built. Then you can copy and paste those data directly into your 
spreadsheet.

OK.  How about scripting this?  Has anyone made a bash script to generate a 
data report, then
process it into a chart, and save to a file?

When you say "include a data table" I'm lost.  It would not be part of a chart, 
so included in what?
Generating a data table, (which to me means name:value pairs from an expense 
report would be great.  I could bar chart it with any 
tool.   I don't need the structure of the account levels in gnucash, just 
choosing which accounts, (or placeholdler aggregating 
accounts) to bar-chart, then being able to set the appearance details in an 
outside program is all I am wanting.
