Chart has rather a complicated API. I've written a simpler API (but somewhat less flexible), if anyone's interested (Tim wasn't). My API is closer in complexity (of use) to matlab's plotting.
I'd describe the API as verbose rather than complicated. It takes 5-10 lines of haskell to define a chart - see the examples on the web page. I think this is fine for use within other code, but I agree is too much typing for interactive use.
Okay, verbose then. 5-10 lines to define a chart is 4-9 lines too many. -- David Roundy Department of Physics Oregon State University
