Sparkline PHP Graphing Library

This sounds like a challenge to me: "We aim to increase the
adoption of sparklines on the web by providing a high-quality
PHP sparkline library" --http://sparkline.sourceforge.net

Anyone have any ideas on how to craft a /Ruby/ library?

The Perl library prvides a subclass of the GD::Graph library. It
only provides line charts, but building out a version that does line
chart (lke Tufte's medical sart examples) and bar chart (like his
won-loss examples) sparklines with some optional decorations
(superimposing ranges, coloring certain elements, etc) would be great.

Dunno, maybe http://gruby.sourceforge.jp/index.en.html could be of use...or basis

Dane G. Avilla shows how sparklines can be done in Ruby with
Encapsulated Postscript at

Edward Tufte forum: Sparklines: computer code implementation

Else, I see no reason why this can't be done with ruby-gd too.
