+(chapter :title [Pie Charts] :ident "pie-charts"
+
+ (p [Skribilo contains a pie-chart formatting package, located in the
+,(tt [(skribilo package pie)]) module. It allows users to produces
+represent numeric data as pie charts as in the following example:]
+
+ (disp (pie :title [Use of Document Formatting Systems]
+ :fingers? #t :labels 'outside
+ :initial-angle 90
+ :ident "pie-skribilo-rulez"
+ (slice :weight 10 :color "red" :detach? #t
+ (bold [Skribilo]))
+ (slice :weight 6 :color "green" "Skribe")
+ (slice :weight 6 :color "blue" "Lout")
+ (slice :weight 4 :color "lightgrey" "LaTeX")
+ (slice :weight 2 :color "yellow" "Docbook")
+ (slice :weight 1 :color "black" "others"))))
+
+ (p [A default implementation, which uses ,(ref :text [Ploticus] :url
+"http://ploticus.sf.net") as an external program, is available for all
+engines. There is also a specific implementation for the Lout engine
+which relies on Lout's own pie-chart package. In the latter case, you
+don't need to have Ploticus installed, but you need it in the former.])
+ (p [Currently it only supports slice-coloring, but support for
+textures (particularly useful for black & white printouts) could be
+added in the future.])
+
+ (section :title [Syntax]
+
+ (p [Let us start with a simple example:]
+
+ (example-produce
+ (example :legend "Example of a pie chart"
+ (prgm :file "src/pie1.skb"))
+ (disp (include "src/pie1.skb"))))
+
+ (p [This illustrates the three markups provided by the ,(tt [pie])
+package, namely ,(tt [pie]), ,(tt [slice]), and ,(tt [sliceweight]).
+This last markup returns the weight of the slice it is used in, be it as
+a percentage or an absolute value. Note that the ,(tt [:total]) option
+of ,(tt [pie]) can be used to create pie charts no entirely filled.])
+ (p [Various options allow the pie layout to be controlled:]
+
+ (example-produce
+ (example :legend "Specifying the layout of a pie chart"
+ (prgm :file "src/pie2.skb"))
+ (disp (include "src/pie2.skb"))))))
