Thanks for posting this. It's not quite as fancy as the image-graph
generator that Carl Cravens posted recently; but it is simpler to operate
which is good.

My perl-fu is nonexistent, tho I can understand enough about it to realize I
needed to run some commands like:

cd /var/lib/backuppc/log
/usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_zcat LOG.1.z >> /var/tmp/bpc-log.txt
/usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_zcat LOG.0.z >> /var/tmp/bpc-log.txt
/usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_zcat LOG >> /var/tmp/bpc-log.txt
chmod +x ~user/gant.pl
~user/gant.pl -c 80 -d 40 < /var/tmp/bpc-log.txt 


I'm not quite clear on what the 'duration' means (tho I'm guessing it's the
number of hours to take data from). Also, why didn't I get nicely lined up
output like you did?

# ~user/gant.pl -c 80 -d 40 < /var/tmp/bpc-log.txt 
              2013-03-09 17:00:32 -> 2013-03-11 10:00:32 (2013-03-11 16:04:12)

Also, what do the 'i,I,l,L,F' characters mean?
