Yes that's entirely possible, but my main point was that the chart looks really hand-made (by someone who doesn't really know what they're doing). I don't really see how an ascii data visualization tool would spit out such an abomination...

Exactly. Show me the command line to get that graph.

The author of the blogpost in another comment around here said he aliased csvtool to cat, hence cat'ing a csv. That said, unless there's another CLI csvtool program, the one I've read about can't plot. But there are CLI plotters out there.

Anyway, like I said, I'm not trying to say the post is factual. Just trying to point out that the fact that he cat'ed a CSV and got a plot isn't that big a deal (and shouldn't really be an indication of fraud), in a world where so many of us customize our working environments.
