Hi Mike,

I was trying to do something very simple. I saw Mathias Dahl's post on 
EmacsWiki about google's chart api

   http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/GooglePieChart

and thought that I could make something useful out of it.

I have attached my late night work on this. I believe the very simple 
parse does not have the quality you would expect, but I hope you rather 
easily can see what I am trying to do. To test:

  - evaluate chart.el
  - open temp1.mx-chart

There are two commands available in the chart data buffer: C-c C-c and 
M-Tab.

Does your parser compiler create a parser? Could that be used like above?


Best wishes,
L
