[yt-users] Query

You can use numpy's loadtxt() to load columns of data into memory and use
the plot function to plot them.
http://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/reference/generated/numpy.loadtxt.html

so in yt it would look something like

from yt.mods import *
...some yt stuff that saves to myfile.txt...

import numpy as na
col1, col2 = na.loadtxt("myfile.txt", usecols=(0,1))
pylab.plot(col1,col2)

This is assuming your ASCII data is in columns.  Essentially starting from
import numpy, this is just a matplotlib script which can be separate from
the yt stuff above.
