I havent looked at your implementation, but regarding your "screenshot", some questions, suggestions, remarks. I think you should implement some means of selecting which archs you want to plot. Preferably through some config file thing. I'd think of specifying per arch, and or using predefined sets, e.g. to remove all prefix arches, since they spoil any output with huge unreadable matrices. Have you ever played with rotating the view? Some keywords are awfully long, like sparc64-solaris. Most versions are shorter. In case the number of versions is small, you could even have the versions in columnar style (e.g. not vertical, just a column spanning a couple of chars), such that it is much better readable. Maybe consider a raw, tab, csv alike output format, for easy parsing by other scripts? Could perhaps handy to render it alternatively as xml, latex, etc. Maybe introduce some more natural language mode? E.g. some indication per version if all arches are keyworded, stable, per version what arches are still missing... > # # # # > Keywords for sys-devel/gcc: > | s > | > | p > | > | s a > | > | p r > | > | a p a c x x x > x x x x | > | a m i p s r 6 6 6 6 > x 8 8 x 8 8 | > | m d a h i a m m p c p c 4 4 x 4 4 > 8 6 6 x x 8 6 6 x | > | d 6 r p a 6 6 i p - a - - - 6 - - > 6 x - - 8 8 6 - - 8 | > | 6 4 m p 6 4 8 p p c o r s s f 4 o s > - 8 f i 6 6 - o s 6 | > | 4 - - a 4 - k s p - p c o o r - p o > c 6 r n - - n p o - | u > | a a p s - l l - - l - - c m e - l l e m e l > y - e t l m e e l w | n > | l m h i m m p s p f i i h h i m i - a n f a a e a n a > g f e e i a t n a i | u s > | p d a p a 6 i p c 3 a x b n n p p n i r a c b b r r b c b r > w b b r n c b b r n | s l > | h 6 r p 6 8 p p 6 9 s r 8 s u u u u u n i i o s s i i s o s i > i s s i u o s s i n | e o > | a 4 m a 4 k s c 4 0 h c 6 d x x x x x t x x s d d s s d s d s > n d d x x s d d s t | d t > --------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------+------- > 2.95.3-r9 | + + + + > | 2.95 > 2.95.3-r10 | ~ ~ ~ ~ > | > --------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------+------- > 3.1.1-r2 | - + + > | 3.1 > --------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------+------- > 3.2.2 | > | # 3.2 > 3.2.3-r4 | + - + + + + + + > | > --------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------+------- > 3.3.6-r1 | ~ ~ > | 3.3 > --------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------+------- > 3.4.6-r2 | + + + * ~ * ~ + + ~ + + + * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * > * ~ * * * * * * * * | 3.4 > --------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------+------- > 4.0.4 | * * * * ~ * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * > * * * * * * * * * * | 4.0 > --------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------+------- > 4.1.2 | + + + + + * + + + + + + + * * * * * * * * * * * ~ * * * * * * > * ~ * * * * * * * * | 4.1 > --------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------+------- > 4.2.4-r1 | ~ ~ ~ + ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ > ~ | 4.2 > --------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------+------- > 4.3.3-r2 | ~ ~ ~ - ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ > ~ | # 4.3 > 4.3.4 | + + + - + ~ + + + + + + > ~ | > 4.3.5 | ~ ~ ~ - ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ > ~ | > --------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------+------- > 4.4.2 | ~ ~ ~ - ~ ~ ~ ~ - ~ > ~ | # 4.4 > 4.4.3-r2 | + + + - + ~ + + ~ + + + > ~ | > 4.4.3-r3 | ~ ~ + - + ~ ~ ~ ~ + ~ ~ > ~ | > [I]4.4.4-r1 | ~ ~ ~ + ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ > ~ | # > 4.4.4-r2 | ~ + ~ + ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ + > ~ | > 4.4.5 | ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ > ~ | > --------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------+------- > [M]4.5.1 | ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ > ~ | 4.5 -- Fabian Groffen Gentoo on a different level
