Hi there!
A long time ago there was a discussion about some kind of tiny block
charts that run within the text. Now I would need such for the
summary of a poll.
But I can't remember the name, and thus I can't find the thread and
website.
Can you help me?
Greetlings from Lake Constance!

Are you looking for an inline table? If so, here is the snippet of the
code that I had gotten from somewhere. Perhaps some examples from
Hans.
\starttext
\installframedlocator {table}
{}
{\hbox{\lower\dimexpr\dp\strutbox+.25ex+.4pt\relax\box\framebox}}
\defineframed
[inlinetable]
[location=table,
offset=overlay,
frame=off]
\startitemize[n,broad]
\item Hello world!
\inlinetable{\bTABLE\bTR\bTD \strut Little\eTD \bTD \strut table\eTD\eTR\eTABLE}
First item continues.
\item Second item.
\stopitemize
\stoptext

Thank you, that's what I meant.
I had in mind there was some TeX solution? But never mind, I need them
in an InDesign layout anyway.

Hi Hraban,
there was a pgf solution on Tuftes page:

Thank you.
Actually, I only seem to need some percentage bars for my poll results
(% of yes, perhaps and no for about 50 questions).
So I wrote a python script that gets the data from my database and
writes an EPS of the bar (fortunately I learned how to handcode PS).
This is converted to PDF, and I'm set. As I mentioned, my magazine is
made with InDesign, so I can't calculate on the fly.
Looking at all the beautiful sparklines, I thought how I could utilize
the higher data density, but had no idea yet.
But my inline bars (with a scale) are already better than the pie
charts that I had in mind first.
Greetlings, Hraban
