[Paraview] Plain text data with white space delimiters; Use raw array as axis/variables

[Andy Bauer]

Hi,

ParaView should be able to handle this. Try giving the filename a .csv
extension and then add a space for the Field Delimiter Characters options.
Optionally, you may also want to enable the Merge Consecutive Delimiters
option.
