name
   piechart: create a pie chart

synopsis
   piechart(piechartp: in, pienumbers: in, pieps: out, output: out)

files

   piechartp:  parameters to control the program.  The file must contain the
      following parameters, one per line:

      parameterversion: The version number of the program.  This allows the
         user to be warned if an old parameter file is used.

      diameter of the chart (cm)

      angle to start (degrees).  This is standard polar coordinates,
      where 0 is along the positive x axis.

      direction +1 or -1 to draw.  As in standard polar coordinates,
      positive is counter clockwise, negative is clockwise.

      title line.  The title is centered on the piechart.  A nice
      thing to have is the name of the computer using `uname -n`.

      font size for the title.

   pienumbers: a set of pienumbers for the pie chart.  Each row is a slice.

      The first column is the pienumbers.  These are summed to get the
      total and then each number is divided by that total so they
      don't have to be fractions in the pienumbers file.

      The second column is either an 'h' for hsb or 'r' for rgb, the
      color model.  If the column contains 'H', it stands for hsb but
      the hsb color is created and columns 3 to 5 are skipped.

      columns 3 to 5 are:
      hue, saturation brightness (hsb model)
      or
      red, green, blue (rgb colormodel)

   pieps:  A postscript program that produces the pie chart.

   output: messages to the user
