KST Live Data

[Jacob Watts]

Hello KST,

I'm interested in plotting live data. I wrote a python script to write data
to a .txt file every n number of seconds. I'm wondering if this is an
appropriate way to port data into the kst2 software. I would like to be
able to record data to a .txt file or comparable file format. I'm hoping to
port serial data to the kst2 program with a baud rate of 115200 or 9600. I
haven't been able to find anything online that discusses this process. I'm
thinking that I'll run into the problem of writing to the file at the same
time as I'm trying to read it with kst2. Any advice would be appreciated.
Or a simple tutorial somewhere would be great.

I've reference https://kst-plot.kde.org/kst1/handbook/index.html and
https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kst/

I'm fairly familiar with python, c++, c. I also have a dual boot computer
with Ubuntu and Windows 10. I'm currently running kst2 on Windows 10.
