Re: Select data points in interactive terminal

@Gavin Buxton,

Thanks for the nice tip, I didn't know this before.
What I used often is left double click to copy the value to clipboard.

Since Now there are so many nice python plot libs to choose from, I tend to use gnuplot to get a quick overview of the data, just use:

$>: gnuplot -e "plot 'data.csv'; pause mouse close"

Quite simple yet I can examine the data interactivily, and I can even export it to vector format.
To that task, I think Gnuplot is Unbeatable.
