    External - A writer class for Excel external charts.

## SYNOPSIS
    This module is used to include external charts in [Spreadsheet::WriteExcel](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/Spreadsheet%3A%3AWriteExcel/markdown).

## DESCRIPTION
    This module is used to include external charts in [Spreadsheet::WriteExcel](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/Spreadsheet%3A%3AWriteExcel/markdown). It is an internal
    module and isn't used directly by the end user.

    For information on how to used external charts see the "external_charts.txt" (or ".pod") in the
    "external_charts" directory of the distro.
