                          I. I want to do a simple graph from timestamp YEAR-month-day to valuation, not wanting to use spreadsheets. Is there some ASCII tool for it to see it on CLI? There are over 500k lines of data, and I want to see only a sketch of it like in Ascii:

    Value
    |          *
    |    *   *   *
    |  *   *       *   *
    |*               *
    |----------------------> Timestamp

II. Then, I want to see allocation like in pizza slices:

            - - -
         -\       -
       -    \ World -
      - Food \ Index -
       -    /  \   -
         - /oil \-
            - - -

I know how-to-get grappy CSV data in Python but totally inexperienced in visualization:

    import csv
    csv_reader = csv.reader(open('data.csv', 'rb'), delimiter=';')
    for row in csv_reader:
        # do something with row....

Before I do my own ASCII visualization thing, I want to know whether such thing exists. How do you visualize your portfolio in ASCII?
