Hello Alan,
thanks for the guidance, I will then dig a little deeper into
matplotlib. I guess the reason why I discarded it before is that I
understood matplotlib to be a curve plotting tool, and not so much a
tool to draw graphics. I will investigate!

I suspect that I cannot plot this with matplotlib, and my next best
guess would be Inkscape, with which I have no scripting experience
whatsoever.
Why do you think you couldn't do it with matplotlib?
It seems a fairly basic request.
I have no experience with either package but matplotlib is the first
place I'd look for this.
There is also gnuplot which I've used outside Pytthon, but it could do
this too I'm sure.
OTOH It would be fairly easy to roll your own in a vanilla GUI Canvas
widget. Its only a few stratight lines and text after all.
Or even to use a scroll bar or progress bar widget to indicate the result.
