/* GDCHART 0.11.5dev  17 Dec 2004 */
/* Copyright Bruce Verderaime 1998-2004 */

GDChart 0.11.5 relies on the latest version of libgd ( gd 2.0.28 or higher available: www.boutell.com/gd/ ). 
gd 2.0.28 in turn relies on libpng and zlib (and optionally libjpeg, and libfreetype).

If libgd 2.0.28 or higher isn't installed, do that first.

There's no configure script.
Makefile may need to be edited to change paths to libgd (It's set to libgd's defualt install path).
The makefile defaults to include jpeg and freetype, and assumes they are installed,
and libgd was built with those options as well.

Though dev, it is a stable release.
