How do I import my CSV (comma-separated values) data into DPlot?

If your files are XY data with X values in the first column and all subsequent columns being Y values for separate curves, you can drag-and-drop your CSV files onto DPlot and it will correctly interpret them, including (if present) titles and axis labels (for a single curve) or legend entries for multiple curves. CSV files may also be opened with the File>Open menu command, of course (select the Multiple columns file type). DPlot includes support for 3D (X,Y,Z) data and for XY data also allows you to specify which columns to plot, which column is X, or to specify that the data is alternating X,Y columns rather than X,Y,Y,Y. “CSV” is actually a bit misleading in this case, as DPlot will also allow tab- or space-separated columns. DPlot will also allow you to save your data to a CSV file that can be read directly by Microsoft Excel.
