@JoVo: Not everyone knows what *Fly* is; nor did I. Now I do: *Fly* is a tool to generate graphics from scripts, from CGI input, from data bases ... ; dynamic GIF and JPEG so to say. Fly works on the server; and the (compressed) pixel picture is sent to the client.
@Keary Suska: >> The bad news is that you will have to port the code to the Mac<< I do not think that one has to port Fly to MacPerl. If you have (Li|U)n(u|i)x server and Perl, Fly would run on these. One more way for Dynamic Graphics is *Flash*; in this case the picture is created on the user's client machine. Flash is more dynamic in so far as pictures can change timewise; this means that you can produce movies. Im am curious what is easier and more convincing: to calculate, say, a statistics by Fly or by Flash. Detlef
