Package: grace
Version: 1:5.1.21-2+b1
Severity: wishlist

Hi!

Please consider the following example.

$ cat foo.txt
   100.5 95.5
   101.5 96.5
   102.5 95.5
   101.5 90.5
$ xmgrace -block foo.txt -settype xyz -bxy 1:2:0

Then, in the "Set Appearance" dialog window, "main" tab,
enable "Annotate values" and, in "Ann. values" tab,
set Type "Z".  Click on the "Accept" button.

You get your data plotted with line numbers as value
annotations, as expected and desired.

OK, now suppose that I failed to forecast this need
in the first place.
I just ran the following command:

$ xmgrace -block foo.txt -bxy 1:2

Is there a way to get the above described annotated
values, *without* reloading foo.txt from scratch?
I would like to have an "Index" option in the Type
listbox ("Ann. values" tab) that automagically
generates column 0 (that is to say, data indices)
and uses it to annotate values.

Could this be implemented, please?

Thanks for considering.
