font-family:Arial'>Finally with those segfaults out of the way I got this fix
cooked up. By the way, is there a semi-comprehensive test suite for rrdtool commands?
I.e. with these sample rrds and these sample rrdtool graph calls, we <i><span
style='font-style:italic'>should</span></i> get pictures that look like <i><span
style='font-style:italic'>this</span></i> and what do they actually look like?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>See both modes (--full-size-mode with and without
--no-legend) here:<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>The next step to finish this page is to add an option like
--only-legend which produces an image consisting of ONLY the legend part of the
graph. Obviously such a command could have a laxer syntax since it doesn’t
require any actual data, but what do you all think? I would put such an image
at the top of the page. Actually, it would only need to be generated once for
each metric and then the page could just call the static/cached legend image. This
would basically be a convenience option for users to generate the legend for
when the same graph from multiple sources many times and they don’t want
a legend on each one.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
