    As have other tools. R and its inspiration S had these, SPSS, SAS, SPlus, and who knows how many other stats programs over the decades, going back to the 1970s or even 1960s, mostly under Unix and mainframe platforms. I've even written my own simple barplot program in awk for generating quick-and-dirty comparisons in shell scripts.
