No support yet for "lfi" sparkline graph type

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Here's a sparkline I'd like to generate for my application:
http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?cht=lfi&chs=300x15&chd=s:0qy119yudYQR&chco=00
8000

gchartrb doesn't support the lfi chart type yet, so I have to hack it with
regexping the url.

I am aware  of the lfi chart type. But I was wondering if it is a good idea to 
support it right away, since it has not been documented.

But let me consider it since you have made a request.

Another alternate way to generate a sparklines chart is given here http://

Thanks.

I actually tried the way described in the blog post first, but it actually 
_doesn't work_ for image sizes below 
~30 pixels high, making it sort of useless for true sparklines. A big chunk of 
the graph is cut off.

Ok. I will give a shot at implementing it this week.

Thanks for your feedback :).

This feature is now committed to trunk, as experimental support for Financial 
Line 
Chart.

I should be making a release in a day or two, after considering if I can 
squeeze in 
a couple of minor features.
