Has anyone been able to create a Family Tree chart with siblings using perl?
I use Gramps as my main genealogy program but for much of my searches it
would be helpful if I had a chart with siblings without having to purchase a
separate program.
Right now I print out a Family Tree by Grandparent and hand write in
siblings to see what additional family info I need to search for.
Since Gramps reports are all done in Python, I figured this would be a great
perl exersize.
Hi Rich,
You might want to look at LifeLines and its reports. There is a
lines2perl convertor that takes a LifeLines report can converts it to a
Perl script using Gedcom.pm
http://search.cpan.org/dist/Gedcom/lib/Gedcom/LifeLines.pm
https://github.com/pjcj/Gedcom.pm/blob/master/lines2perl
I wrote a bunch of reports for LifeLines years ago as did others and you
might find some reports that are close to what you want. And after you
convert them to Perl, they might be easy to modify.

There are a bunch of famrep* which are variations on family group report
pages.
