I read several requirements for pie charts, and it's seems that an up-to-date
program doesn't exist today in the public domain (fchart is too archaic).
Here is a simple way to realize hight quality, very customizable,
grayscaled or
colored PostScript pie charts.
It's an AWK program, and it use LaTeX and PostScript, via the splendid
PSTricks
package of Timothy Van Zandt (thanks Timothy!) - this program was inspired by
one of the Timothy's examples.
All the informations are at the beginning of the program.
Here I give the AWK program with two examples data files, and a little
PostScript
file, which is the result of the examples.
Thanks for comments and improvements.
