Creating Charts

Hi!

I need to create some simple charts with python.
A list contains integers between 0 and mymax.

I want to see how the values are distributed (How
many are 0, how many are mymax, ...). The result should
be a small (200x200) png file.

I searched a bit:
- gnuplot: Too big, too complicated
- matplotlib: Too much gtk binding (I only need a png)
- reportlib: Needs PIL. First try failed (_renderPM missing)

Any hints on how to create charts?
There need not to be a python-binding. I can
call the external application with os.system().

Operating System: Linux 2.4.20

 Thanks,
  Thomas
