yup, but then so is keeping the old jar of mayonaise in the back of the fridge, but we all do it ;)

Silly animated charts to deal with data from image analysis. Active buttons, multiple chats and the like. The necessary messing about to see if things are doing what I hope they are (they're not :-| ). I've been trying to do it in oOo spreadsheets and gnumeric, but they just don't seem to be as up to it. 'gnuplot' is on the list to look at, but is it worth the trouble of getting wine going for excel?
