[Kst] How do I subset data?

Hi John,

Fitting to subsets is, alas, on our list of high priority features to add... 
(the 'alas' part here means that it isn't done yet....)

For now, what you would have to do is to load a subset of the data.  You can 
do this when you first load the data (from the command line or the data 
wizard) or you can change the frame range of all of your data using the 
change frame range icon in the tool-bar.  I understand that this can be 
pretty inconvenient if you don't know exactly what sample numbers you want.

sigh...
