Thanks for the patch. I've tried it out and it mostly works, except that the file format isn't properly recognized. I'm sure with sufficient fiddling it would work fine. I hadn't come across Kst. It's many years since I've used KDE, Kst looks like very capable application.
At some stage I hope to offer the user the option of using any plotting utility. There are many more options now available than when I first started developing gspiceui.

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
There was indeed an issue with the previous patch. Kst needs to be told explicitly which graphs to draw, otherwise it defaults to the import settings used previously (which is not a reliable way as you have found out). Attached the new patch. Please note, your Kst version needs to be recent enough to support the correct command line arguments (like '--asciiDataStart'). Verify with 'kst2 -h' to check if asciiDataStart is supported (option introduced after the 2.0.8 release).
I've applied your patch to the current code base. Had to do it by hand because too much time had passed (my fault) but it's in the code base now. Unfortunately I'm unable to fully test it fully because I can't install Kst on my Archlinux system. The install breaks for some reason. It'll get tested in the fullness of time no doubt.
Thanks for your contribution.

Below a patch to integrate KST as viewer. I hope you can use it.
