Chart drawing library for Python

Hello,

is there something like "JpGraph" for python ?
For those who don't know this PHP library: It is a high level
drawing library that generates gif files with all kind of charts.

Or (maybe better) is there a C library doing this. I think i
read about something like this a while ago.

there has been a thread about this lately: Many people (including me) use
graphviz for that. As long as you don't need interactivity, it does a
really great job.

To generate jpg's and png's (maybe gif's):

binding for plotutils:
http://biggles.sourceforge.net/libplot/

binding for gnuplot:
http://gnuplot-py.sourceforge.net/

gdchart has a python binding (which I can't bring up right now). Here
is gdchart's own page.

Also, some people use "R" for fancy charts, and R has a python binding:

Oops - got confused by the name JpGraph - AFAIK charts aren't the subject of
graphviz....
