Here's a Perl script (doesn't need the Perl API) which I wrote some while
ago...  I abandoned it in favour of "p4 annotate -c" and the Emacs function
you mentioned, so it could do with some work.  In particular it doesn't line
up the columns, and there are only a limited number of fields.  However, it
doesn't look like I'm going to be doing anything to it any time soon, and
it's quite short, so I'll just attach what I've got.
